Lee Krasner Quotes

With Jackson there was quiet solitude. Just to sit and look at the landscape. An inner quietness. After dinner, to sit on the back porch and look at the light. No need for talking. For any kind of communication Picture Quote #1

I never violate an inner rhythm. I loathe to force anything. I don’t know if the inner rhythm is Eastern or Western. I know it is essential for me. I listen to it and I stay with it. I have always been this way. I have regards for the inner voice Picture Quote #1

As I say, I as an abstract artist was active politically Picture Quote #1

I have never been able to understand the artist whose image never changes Picture Quote #1

At that point it certainly would be called abstract. That is to say, you had a model and there’d be one or two or three people there drawing the model but otherwise you had abstractions all around the room, even though the model was in front of you Picture Quote #1

My own image of my work is that I no sooner settle into something than a break occurs. These breaks are always painful and depressing but despite them I see that there’s a consistency that holds out, but is hard to define Picture Quote #1

Painting... in which the inner and the outer man are inseparable, transcends technique, transcends subject and moves into the realm of the inevitable Picture Quote #1

All my work keeps going like a pendulum; it seems to swing back to something I was involved with earlier, or it moves between horizontality and verticality, circularlity, or a composite of them. For me, I suppose, that change is the only constant Picture Quote #1

I like a canvas to breathe and be alive. Be alive is the point. And, as the limitations are something called pigment and canvas, let’s see if I can do it Picture Quote #1

We get used to a certain kind of colour of form or format, and it’s acceptable. And to puncture that is sticking your neck out a bit. And then pretty soon, that’s very acceptable Picture Quote #1

I need to be alone for certain periods of time or I violate my own rhythm Picture Quote #1

I think, if one is a painter, all you experience does come out when you’re painting Picture Quote #1

I think my painting is so autobiographical if anyone can take the trouble to read it Picture Quote #1

The key is what is within the artist. The artist can only paint what she or he is about Picture Quote #1

I am never free of the past. I have made it crystal clear that I believe the past is part of the present which becomes part of the future Picture Quote #1

The procedure was that an artist got a mural and then he would have anywhere from two to ten assistants depending on the size of the mural and how many assistants he needed, or she needed Picture Quote #1
