The subject should be observe...

The subject should be observed more for shape and color than for drawing... precise drawing is dry and hampers the impression of the whole, it destroys all sensations.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

I sometimes have a horrible f...

I sometimes have a horrible fear of turning up a canvas of mine. I'm always afraid of finding a monster in place of the precious jewels I thought I had put there!

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

It is only by drawing often, ...

It is only by drawing often, drawing everything, drawing incessantly, that one fine day you discover to your surprise that you have rendered something in its true character.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

I began to understand my sens...

I began to understand my sensations, to know what I wanted, at around the age of forty - but only vaguely.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

At times I come across works ...

At times I come across works of mine which are soundly done and really in my style, and at such moments I find great solace.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

I think when one has talent o...

I think when one has talent one finally breaks through; so don't pass up any opportunity to do some work.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

One can do such lovely things...

One can do such lovely things with so little. Subjects that are too beautiful end by appearing theatrical.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

It does not astonish me that ...

It does not astonish me that the critics in London relegate me to the lowest rank. Alas! I fear that they are only too justified!

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

We are all the subjects of im...

We are all the subjects of impressions, and some of use seek to convey the impressions to others. In the art of communicating impressions lies the power of generalizing without losing that logical connection of parts to the whole which satisfies the mind.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

Watercolour is not especially...

Watercolour is not especially difficult, but I must warn you to steer clear of those pretty English watercolourists, so skilful and alas so weak, and so often too truthful.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

Painting, art in general, enc...

Painting, art in general, enchants me. It is my life. What else matters? When you put all your soul into a work, all that is noble in you, you cannot fail to find a kindred soul who understands you, and you do not need a host of such spirits. Is not that all an artist should wish for?

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

It is the brushwork of the ri...

It is the brushwork of the right value and color which should produce the drawing.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

Cover the canvas at the first...

Cover the canvas at the first go, and then work on till you see nothing more to add ... Don't proceed according to rules and principles, but paint what you observe and feel. Paint generously and unhesitatingly, for it is best not to lose the first impression.

I sometimes have a horrible fear of turning up a canvas of mine. I'm always afraid of finding a monster in place of the precious jewels I thought I had put there!

I began to understand my sensations, to know what I wanted, at around the age of forty - but only vaguely.

Don't be afraid in nature: one must be bold, at the risk of having been deceived and making mistakes.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

I remember that, although I wa...

I remember that, although I was full of fervour, I didn't have the slightest inkling, even at forty, of the deeper side to the movement we were pursuing by instinct. It was in the air!

I began to understand my sensations, to know what I wanted, at around the age of forty - but only vaguely.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

I regard it as a waste of time...

I regard it as a waste of time to think only of selling: one forgets one's art and exaggerates one's value.

Camille Pissarro 32 quotes

When you do a thing with your ...

When you do a thing with your whole soul and everything that is noble within you, you always find your counterpart.
