Everything you can imagine is real - Pablo Picasso

Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth.

If I paint a wild horse, you might not see the horse... but surely you will see the wildness!

Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.

There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into sun.

Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.

I am always doing that which I can not do, in order that I may learn how to do it.

Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working.

What do you think an artist is? ...he is a political being, constantly aware of the heart breaking, passionate, or delightful things that happen in the world, shaping himself completely in their image. Painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war.

The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.
— Pablo Picasso
