The outfit soon took on color, dash and a unique flavor which is the essence of that elusive and deathless thing called soldiering (Color Quotes)
When using colors to recreate a general harmony of tones in nature, one loses it by painfully exact imitation. One keeps it by recreating in an equivalent color range, and that may not be exactly, or far from exactly, like the model (Color Quotes)
You’ll understand, I’m sure that I’m chasing the merest sliver of color. It’s my own fault. I want to grasp the intangible. It’s terrible how the light runs out. Color, any color, lasts a second, sometimes 3 or 4 minutes at most (Color Quotes)
There is no criterion by which to recognize what is a color, except that it is one of our colors (Color Quotes)
Our ordinary language has no means for describing a particular shade of color. Thus it is incapable of producing a picture of this color (Color Quotes)
The difficulty with color is to go beyond the fact that it’s color? to have it be not just a colorful picture but really be a picture about something. It’s difficult. So often color gets caught up in color, and it becomes merly decorative. Some photographers use it brilliantly to make visual statements combining color and content; otherwise it is empty (Color Quotes)
Just as counterpoint and harmony follow their own laws, and differ in rhythm and movement, both formal tensions and color tensions have a development of their own in accordance with the inherent laws from which they are separately derived. Both, however, aim toward the realization of the same image. And both deal with the depth problem (Color Quotes)
I still come closest to success with drawing. When I use color the results are dubious, for these painfully gained experiences bear less fruit (Color Quotes)
The great use of copying, if it be at all useful, should seem to be in learning color; yet even coloring will never be perfectly attained by servilely copying the model before you (Color Quotes)
The spectator, as he walks the gallery, will stop, or pass along. To give a general air of grandeur at first view, all trifling, or artful play of little lights, or an attention to a variety of tints is to be avoided; a quietness and simplicity must reign over the whole work, to which a breadth of uniform and simple color will very much contribute (Color Quotes)
It is not by his mixing and choosing, but by the shapes of his colors, and the combination of those shapes, that we recognize the colorist. Color becomes significant only when it becomes form (Color Quotes)
The more an object is polished or brilliant, the less you see its own color and the more it becomes a mirror reflecting the color of its surroundings (Color Quotes)
Not only can color, which is under fixed laws, be taught like music, but it is easier to learn than drawing, whose elaborate principles cannot be taught (Color Quotes)
It seems obvious that colors vary according to lights, because when any color is placed in the shade, it appears to be different from the same color which is located in light. Shade makes color dark, whereas light makes color bright where it strikes (Color Quotes)
I organize the opposition between colors, lines and curves. I set curves against straight lines, patches of color against plastic forms, pure colors against subtly nuanced shades of gray (Color Quotes)
Color is an inborn gift, but appreciation of value is merely training of the eye, which everyone ought to be able to acquire (Color Quotes)
We should like to have some towering geniuses, to reveal us to ourselves in color and fire (Color Quotes)
It seemed to me that it was possible to translate light, forms, and character using nothing but color, without recourse to values (Color Quotes)
The principal subject is the surface, which has its color, its laws over and above those of object (Color Quotes)
It all depends on the directors. Working closely with a director is the main job of a film composer. Interpreting what he perceives as a color, an emotion or mood is very abstract. A director tells you something he wants and then you have to run back (Color Quotes)
When I talked with an opposing coach before a game and he mentions the pink walls, I know I’ve got him. I can’t recall a coach who has stirred up a fuss about the color and then beat us (Color Quotes)
It is the bareness of drawing that I like. The act of drawing is what locates, suggests, discovers. At times it seems enough to draw, without the distractions of color and mass. Yet it is an old ambition to make drawing and painting one (Color Quotes)
It’s like being a newborn, this sudden sensory overload of noise, color, smells and gravity after months of quietly floating, encased in relative calm and isolation. No wonder babies cry in protest when they’re born (Color Quotes)
The painter doesn’t try to reproduce the scene before him... he simplifies and eliminates until he knows exactly what stirred him, sets this down in color and line as simply and as powerfully as possible and so translates his impression into an aesthetic emotion (Color Quotes)
Painting is always strongest when in spite of composition, color, etc., it appears as a fact, or an inevitability, as opposed to a souvenir or arrangement (Color Quotes)
You can eliminate color and still have a painting that works, but you must have drawing, value and design (Color Quotes)
The quilt format is highly appropriate for repetition and serialization. Formal issues of balance and color, space and light in landscape are endlessly engaging. I try to use the medium to its maximum, pushing well beyond tradition (Color Quotes)
Try to do ugly things so that you make them beautiful... The more delicate the thing is in nature the more one must look for the solemn note. Color in nature is never pretty, it’s beautiful (Color Quotes)
See what you can do with your daring with color and your ignorance mixed with it (Color Quotes)
The artist’s alertness to the coloristic demands of each picture, the ability to respond to the picture’s needs, to feed the color until its appetite is satiated; these are the true measures of a colorist’s talent (Color Quotes)
