K. Nathan Gallery - Early California and Fine Pre-1970 American Paintings

Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

Color is the place where our brain and the universe meet.

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.

The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.

If I create from the heart, nearly everything works; if from the head, almost nothing.

Every good painter paints what he is.

To create one’s own world takes courage..

I want to touch people with my art. I want them to say, ‘he feels deeply, he feels tenderly.

Art is a lie that makes us realize truth.

I would rather die of passion than of boredom.
