Art Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Art

1.
Painting is an attempt to come to terms with life. There are as many solutions as there are human beings.
George Tooker

2.
For the outer sense alone perceives visible things and the eye of the heart alone seeds the invisible.
Saint-Victor, Richard of

3.
All paths are the same, leading nowhere. Therefore, pick a path with heart!
Castaneda, Carlos

4.
Wherever art appears, life disappears.
Picabia, Francis

5.
Art is a reality, not a definition; inasmuch as it approaches a reality, it approaches perfection, and inasmuch as it approaches a mere definition, it is imperfect and untrue.
Haydon, Benjamin

6.
Some people carry their heart in their head and some carry their head in their heart. The trick is to keep them apart yet working together.
Hare, David

7.
Great art is the contempt of a great man for small art.

8.
Nothing right can be accomplished in art without enthusiasm.
Schumann, Robert

9.
Irresponsibility is part of the pleasure of all art; it is the part the schools cannot recognize.
Kael, Pauline

10.
Why should I buy expensive art when I can make my own.
Piero Milani

11.
Art forms of the past were really considered elitist. Bach did not compose for the masses, neither did Beethoven. It was always for patrons, aristocrats, and royalty. Now we have a sort of democratic version of that, which is to say that the audience is so splintered in its interests.
David Cronenberg

12.
If I keep a green bough in my heart, the singing bird will come.
Proverb, Chinese

13.
A painting in a museum hears more ridiculous opinions than anything else in the world.
Edmond de Goncourt

14.
The public history of modern art is the story of conventional people not knowing what they are dealing with.
Motherwell, Robert

15.
It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to the feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures.
Gogh, Vincent Van

16.
Art is man's expression of his joy in labor.
Morris, William

17.
I suppose no matter what I'm drawing, there will always be some sort of question in my mind about it. A work of art (even cartoon art)is never really finished; it is abandoned.
Brooke McEldowney

18.
Art is good when it springs from necessity. This kind of origin is the guarantee of its value; there is no other.
Cassady, Neal

19.
Art is not a study of positive reality, it is the seeking for ideal truth.
Sand, George

20.
Have thy heart in heaven and thy hands upon the earth. Ascend in piety and descend in charity. For this is the Nature of Light and the way of the children.
Vaughan, Thomas

21.
An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have.
Warhol, Andy

22.
It is not in life, but in art that self-fulfillment is to be found.
Woodberry, George E.

23.
Art, that great undogmatized church.
Key, Ellen

24.
Art, like morality, consists of drawing the line somewhere.
G. K. Chesterton

25.
Like other parties of the kind, it was first silent, then talky, then argumentative, then disputatious, then unintelligible, then altogether, then inarticulate, and then drunk. When we had reached the last step of this glorious ladder, it was difficult to get down again without stumbling.
Byron, Lord

26.
I can't criticize what I don't understand. If you want to call this art, you've got the benefit of all my doubts.
Charles Rosin

27.
The notion that the public accepts or rejects anything in modern art is merely romantic fiction. The game is completed and the trophies distributed long before the public knows what has happened.
Wolfe, Thomas

28.
Fine art, that exists for itself alone, is art in a final state of impotence. If nobody, including the artist, acknowledges art as a means of knowing the world, then art is relegated to a kind of rumpus room of the mind and the irresponsibility of the artist and the irrelevance of art to actual living becomes part and parcel of the practice of art.
Carter, Angela

29.
Play the man, Master Ridley; we shall this day light such a candle, by God's grace, in England, as I trust shall never be put out.
Latimer, Bishop Hugh

30.
It's not your painting anymore. It stopped being your painting the moment that you finished it.
Jeff Melvoin

31.
One of the most striking signs of the decay of art is when we see its separate forms jumbled together.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

32.
Art teaches nothing, except the significance of life.
Miller, Henry

33.
Art is the most passionate orgy within man's grasp.
Dubuffet, Jean

34.
Religion and art spring from the same root and are close kin. Economics and art are strangers.
Cather, Willa

35.
Art attracts us only by what it reveals of our most secret self.
Godard, Jean-Luc

36.
I will soon be going out to shape all the singing tomorrows.
Peri, Gabriel

37.
Faint hearts never win fair ladies.
Proverb, Danish

38.
A Great man is he who does not lose his childlike heart.
Mencius (Mengzi Meng-tse)

39.
In order for the artist to have a world to express he must first be situated in this world, oppressed or oppressing, resigned or rebellious, a man among men.
Beauvoir, Simone De

40.
No art can be noble which is incapable of expressing thought, and no art is capable of expressing thought which does not change.
Ruskin, John

41.
The heart will break, but broken live on.
Byron, Lord

42.
An artist must be a reactionary. He has to stand out against the tenor of the age and not go flopping along.
Waugh, Evelyn

43.
What of us lies in the hearts of others is our truest and deepest self.
Herder, Johann Gottfried Von

44.
What ever purifies the heart also fortifies it.
Blair, Hugh

45.
Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.
Henry Ward Beecher

46.
Whatever an artist's personal feelings are, as soon as an artist fills a certain area on the canvas or circumscribes it, he becomes historical. He acts from or upon other artists.
Kooning, Willem De

47.
Personality is everything in art and poetry.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

48.
There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality.
Pablo Picasso

49.
If the wolf had ever come to our back door, he'd have had to bring a picnic lunch.
Anderson, Bill

50.
If that's art, I'm a Hottentot!
Truman, Harry S
