As An Artist, All I Need Is My Paints And Brushes - And Someone To Drag Me Away When The Canvas Is Done

In One Way Or Another, I Always Marked My Pictures. But There Were Times When I Put My Signature On The Back Of The Canvas. All My Works From The Cubist Period, Until About 1914, Have My Name And The Date On The Back Side Of The Stretcher.

The Artist Spends The First Part Of His Life With The Dead, The Second With The Living, And The Third With Himself.

Variation Does Not Mean Evolution. If An Artist Varies His Mode Of Expression This Only Means That He Has Changed His Manner Of Thinking, And In Changing, It Might Be For The Better Or It Might Be For The Worse.
