More about the book

For me, a great artist embodies the expression of the highest intelligence. They capture feelings, the most subtle and consequently elusive transmissions of the mind. Work freely and passionately, and you will make progress; sooner or later, your talent, if you possess one, will receive recognition. But above all, do not sweat over a painting; a great feeling can be conveyed directly. Immerse yourself in that feeling and seek the simplest form to express it.
