-"Living is a form of not being sure...not knowing what next or how...The artist never entirely knows. We guess. We may be wrong, but we take leap after leap in the dark." -Agnes de Mille |
"Art refers to the conscious effort of human beings to arrange color, shapes, lines, sounds, movements, and sensory phenomena to express their ideas and feelings about themselves and their world." -Cohen and Gaines |
"With color, for the price of the pot of paint, people can express their own style and individuality. But, as with style, a gift for color has to be developed by experiment. If you don't dare, you are doomed to dullness." |
"The uncreative life isn't worth living."- Ted Nierenberg, founder of Dansk International Designs, Ltd. |
"Things are pretty, graceful, rich, elegant, handsome, but until they speak to the imagination not yet beautiful."- Ralph Waldo Emerson |
"I am for an art that takes its form from life itself, that twists and extends and accumulates and spits and drips and is heavy and coarse and blunt and sweet and stupid as life itself."- Claes Oldenburg |
