Art is never finished, only abandoned. - Leonardo da Vinci

"Make your work to be in keeping with your purpose"

"As a well spent day brings happy sleep, so life well used brings happy death."

"Where the spirit does not work with the hand, there is no art."

"Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen."

"All our knowledge has its origin in our perceptions"
