"Having worked alone all these years, it seems to me that even if I want to and can learn from others, and even borrow their techniques, I shall always use my own eyes for seeing and always work in a personal way...I painted without stopping so as to learn to paint and get a clear idea of color and so on, until there was almost no room left in my brain for anything else...A painter's life is often hard." -- Van Gogh
