One eye sees, the other feels.
Paul Klee

He has found his style, when he cannot do otherwise.
Paul Klee

A drawing is simply a line going for a walk.
Paul Klee

The painter should not paint what he sees, but what will be seen.
Paul Klee

Children also have artistic ability, and there is wisdom in there having it! The more helpless they are, the more instructive are the examples they furnish us; and they must be preserved free of corruption from an early age.
Paul Klee

Paul Klee

Paul Klee
