Drawing Quotes

Try drawing or painting a scene you’re working on. Often this will help free up you imagination Picture Quote #1

If the horse you’re drawing looks more like a dog, make it a dog Picture Quote #1

I like photography because it is a reality medium, unlike drawing which is unreal. I like to mess with reality... to bend reality. Some of my works beg the question of is it real or not? Picture Quote #1

For me, drawing is the greatest joy. Animation is never as good as when I’m sitting at that desk drawing. Even when it’s up on the screen, it’s never as wonderful as those moments when it’s drawn, to me Picture Quote #1

What is certain is that setting a piece of nature in place and drawing it are two very different things Picture Quote #1

All art should have a certain mystery and should make demands on the spectator. Giving a sculpture or a drawing too explicit a title takes away part of that mystery so that the spectator moves on to the next object, making no effort to ponder the meaning of what he has just seen. Everyone thinks that he or she looks but they don’t really, you know Picture Quote #1

Painting figures is the hardest, certainly the most taxing genre, and you have to be the most on your game. If you have significant drawing problems, the figure will fall apart and it will read wrong emotionally Picture Quote #1

Our bodies, apart from their brilliant role as drawing exercises, are the temples of our being. Like the bodies of all fauna, they deserve both our study and our appreciation Picture Quote #1

I remember the special quiet of rainy days when I felt that I could enter the pages of my beautiful picture books. Now I try to recreate that feeling of believing that the imaginary place I’m drawing really exists. The detail in my work helps to convince me, and I hope others as well, that such places might be real Picture Quote #1

The practice of yoga induces a primary sense of measure and proportion. Reduced to our own body, our first instrument, we learn to play it, drawing from it maximum resonance and harmony Picture Quote #1

I suppose I felt doomed to be an artist early on because of the way I drew all over the books that I needed for school, from ancient history to math. I was more interested in drawing in the margins than actually doing the work Picture Quote #1

Drawing is what you see of the world, truly see... And sometimes what you see is so deep in your head you’re not even sure of what you’re seeing. But when it’s down there on paper, and you look at it, really look, you’ll see the way things are... that’s the world, isn’t it? You have to keep looking to find the truth Picture Quote #1

My university degree is in art and, yes, I do a lot of drawing for all my books. I have a big drafting table set up in a spare bedroom and I cover it with maps and house plans and sketches that I use in the books. Also, I truly love architecture, so that plays a big part in all my books Picture Quote #1

It’s possible to keep drawing this moment out, any moment, hammering it thinner and thinner like beaten gold, like iced chablis, whipping it, whipping it to cheap perfume, each word blown to aneurysm Picture Quote #1

In printmaking, I essentially use the same process as in painting with one important exception... to try, with sensitivity to the medium to emphasize what printing can do best... better than say, painting or collaging or watercolour or drawing or whatever... Otherwise, the artist expresses the same vision in graphics that he does in his other work Picture Quote #1

It is an absolutely vain endeavor to attempt to reconstruct or even comprehend the nature of a human being by simply knowing the forces which have acted upon him. However deeply we should like to penetrate, however close we seem to be drawing to truth, one unknown quantity eludes us: man’s primordial energy, his original self, that personality which was given him with the gift of life itself. On it rests man’s true freedom; it alone determines his real character Picture Quote #1

Nothing seems real anymore. Even the flames from the fire seem to beckon to me, drawing me into some great past life buried somewhere deep in my subconscious, if only I could find the key.. if only.. if only. Ever since my illness, my condition, I’ve been trying to find some logical way of passing my time, of justifying a means to an end Picture Quote #1

We should lay up in our minds a store of goodly thoughts which will be a living treasure of knowledge always with us, and from which, at various times, and amidst all the shiftings of circumstances, we might be sure of drawing some comfort, guidance and sympathy Picture Quote #1

Our current use of time is not rational. There is therefore no point in seeking marginal improvements in how we spend our time. We need to go back to the drawing board and overturn all our assumptions about time Picture Quote #1

When I draw something, I try to build some kind of history into it. Drawing an object that has a certain amount of wear and tear or rust; or a tree that is damaged. I love trying to render not just the object, but what it has been through Picture Quote #1

Here on the drawing board fingers and noses leak from the air brush maggots lie under if I should die before if I should die in the back room stacked up in smooth boxes like soapflakes or tunafish wait the undreamt of Picture Quote #1

A journal is more than a memory goad. It’s therapeutic. The simple act of opening a notebook to put words down stills the crosscurrents of worry, drawing to focus the essential though patterms that best defines us, intersecting those thoughts with the condition of our life at that exact moment. A journal is one of the few anchors the human condition allows us Picture Quote #1

Since the age of six, I have had a passion for drawing things. Now that I am 75 years, I have finally learned something of the true quality of birds, animals, insects, fishes, and of the vital nature of grasses and trees. By the time I am 89, I shall have made more progress. By the time I am 90, I shall understand the deeper meaning of things. When I am 100, I shall be truly marvelous; and at 110 each dot and each line will possess a life of its own Picture Quote #1

Lack of patience is probably the most common reason for losing a game, or drawing games that should have been won Picture Quote #1

It is impossible to discuss realism in logic without drawing in the empirical sciences... A truly realistic mathematics should be conceived, in line with physics, as a branch of the theoretical construction of the one real world and should adopt the same sober and cautious attitude toward hypothetic extensions of its foundation as is exhibited by physics Picture Quote #1

Writing and drawing are very therapeutic, but they are also an excellent manifestation tool. I teach my clients to draw what they want, or to write a story about it to bring the manifestation forward into the present Picture Quote #1

If you go by a school and the kids don’t whistle, back to the drawing board Picture Quote #1

Making clothes involves what I like... color, pattern, shape and movement... I like the everyday process... the people, the pressure, the surprise of seeing the work come alive walking and dancing around on strangers. Like red lipstick on the mouth, my products wake up and brighten and bring the wearer to life... drawing attention to her beauty and specialness... her moods and movements... her dreams and fantasies Picture Quote #1

When I look at a drawing of a person, I look at that person as living Picture Quote #1

Everything in life is drawing, if you want. Drawing is quintessential to knowing the self. Art that survives from one generation to the next is the art that actually carries something that tells society about self Picture Quote #1
