Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.
It takes a long time to become young.
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
I'd like to live like a poor man - only with lost of money.
Painting is a blind man's profession. He paints not what he sees, but what he feels, what he tells himself about what he has seen.
Two boys arrived yesterday with a pebble they said was the head of a dog until I pointed out that it was really a typewriter.
Action is the foundational key to all success.
Taste is the enemy of creativeness.
Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.
There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence transform a yellow spot into sun.
My mother said to me, ''If you become a soldier, you'll be a general, if you become a monk you'll end up as the pope.''Instead, I became a painter and wound up as Picasso.
I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.
When you are young and without success, you have only a few friends. Then, later on, when you are rich and famous, you still have a few...if you are lucky.
God is really another artist. He invented the giraffe, the elephant and the cat. He has no real style. He just goes on trying other things.
