Arthur Wesley Dow quotes:

Painting, which is essentially a rhythmic harmony of coloured spaces. Realism was the death of art. Great art should come from the harmony of two lines.

Art is the most valued thing in the world...it is the expression of the highest form of human energy,the creative power nearest to the divine.The power is within - the question is how to reach it.

art lies in the fine choice. The artist does not teach us to see facts: he teaches us to feel harmonies.
