Text Quotes
Happiness is being on the beam with life - to feel the pull of life (Agnes Martin Quotes)
The value of art is in the observer (Agnes Martin Quotes)
People who look at my painting say that it makes them happy, like the feeling when you wake up in the morning. And happiness is the goal, isn’t it? (Agnes Martin Quotes)
It’s through discipline and tremendous disappointment and failure that you arrive at what it is you must paint. (Agnes Martin Quotes)
The main thing in making art often is letting go of your expectation and your idea (Agnes Martin Quotes)
It’s not about facts, it’s about feelings. It’s about remembering feelings and happiness. A definition of art is that it makes concrete our most subtle emotions. I think the highest form of art is music. It’s the most abstract of all art expression. (Agnes Martin Quotes)
The worst thing you can think about when you’re working is yourself (Agnes Martin Quotes)
What we really want to do is serve happiness. We want everyone to be happy, never unhappy even for a moment. We want the animals to be happy. The happiness of every living thing is what we want (Agnes Martin Quotes)
Art is the concrete representation of our most subtle feelings (Agnes Martin Quotes)
I paint with my back to the world (Agnes Martin Quotes)
I used to meditate until I learned to stop thinking (Agnes Martin Quotes)
Fulfill your potential. That’s the way to happiness (Agnes Martin Quotes)
I’m very careful not to have ideas, because they’re inaccurate (Agnes Martin Quotes)
It is commonly thought that everything that is can be put into words (Agnes Martin Quotes)
Beauty and happiness and life are all the same and they are pervasive, unattached and abstract and they are our only concern. They are immeasurable, completely lacking in substance. They are perfect and sublime. This is the subject matter of art (Agnes Martin Quotes)
Beauty is the mystery of life. It is not in the eye, it is in the mind (Agnes Martin Quotes)
Inspiration is there all the time. For everyone whose mind is not clouded over with thoughts whether they realize it or not (Agnes Martin Quotes)
Of all the pitfalls in our paths and the tremendous delays and wanderings off the track, I want to say that they are not what they seem to be. I want to say that all that seems like fantastic mistakes are not mistakes, all that seems like error is not error; and it all has to be done. That which seems like a false step is the next step (Agnes Martin Quotes)
Agnes Martin is a big influence in my work actually, when I first saw her, these fine grids (Agnes Martin Quotes)
When you look in your mind you find it covered with a lot of rubbishy thoughts. You have to penetrate these and hear what your mind is telling you to do. Such work is original work (Agnes Martin Quotes)
There’s nobody living who couldn’t stand all afternoon in front of a waterfall... Anyone who can sit on a stone in a field awhile can see my painting. Nature is like parting a curtain, you go into it... as you would cross an empty beach to look at the ocean (Agnes Martin Quotes)
It’s not about facts, it’s about feelings. It’s about remembering feelings and happiness. A definition of art is that it makes concrete our most subtle emotions. I think the highest form of art is music. It’s the most abstract of all art expression (Agnes Martin Quotes)
I often paint tranquility. If you stop thinking and rest, then a little happiness comes into your mind. At perfect rest you are comfortable (Agnes Martin Quotes)
When I first made a grid I happened to be thinking of the innocence of trees and then this grid came into my mind and I thought it represented innocence, and I still do, and so I painted it and then I was satisfied. I thought, this is my vision (Agnes Martin Quotes)
I think our minds respond to things beyond this world. Take beauty: it’s a very mysterious thing, isn’t it? I think it’s a response in our minds to perfection. It’s too bad, people not realizing that their minds expand beyond this world (Agnes Martin Quotes)
What I say is that we’re capable of a transcendent response, and I think it makes us happy. And I do think beauty produces a transcendent response (Agnes Martin Quotes)
My paintings are certainly nonobjective. They’re just horizontal lines. There’s not any hint of nature. And still everybody responds, I think (Agnes Martin Quotes)
You can’t make a perfect painting. We can see perfection in our minds. But we can’t make a perfect painting (Agnes Martin Quotes)
Pollock was terrific. I think he freed himself of all kinds of worry about this world. Ran around and dripped, and then he managed to express ecstasy (Agnes Martin Quotes)
The adventurous state of mind is a high house... The joy of adventure is unaccountable. This is the attractiveness of artwork. It is adventurous, strenuous and joyful (Agnes Martin Quotes)
