Inspiration
Don't wait for inspiration. It comes while one is working.
Henri Matisse
Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working.
Pablo Picasso
Let go and trust. Allow inspiration and imagination to lead the way beyond the limitations of what the mind knows.
Linda Saccoccio
A painting which does not take its inspiration from the heart is nothing more than futile juggling.
Caspar David Friedrich
The pure, frank sentiments we hold in our hearts are the only truthful sources of art.
Caspar David Friedrich
When I am true to my inspiration, my brushstrokes sometimes surprise me by exposing something of my inner spirit I was not even aware of.
Keiko Tanabe
All important things in art have always originated from the deepest feeling about the mystery of Being.
Max Beckmann
My paintings are inspirational for they allow the observer to experience infinite viewpoints and perceptions. They are not abstract for they represent what is actually more real than what our eyes are able to see. They allow the viewers to be inspired by taking their own perception beyond their senses and their surroundings.
Rassouli
The most beautiful thing in the world is, precisely, the conjunction of learning and inspiration. Oh, the passion for research and the joy of discovery!
Wanda Landowska
I learned… that inspiration does not come like a bolt, nor is it kinetic, energetic, striving, but it comes to us slowly and quietly and all the time, though we must regularly and every day give it a little chance to start flowing, prime it with a little solitude and idleness.
