Quote by Paul Cezanne

Painting from nature is not copying the object it is realizing one's sensations.

Painting from nature is not copying the object it is realizi

Summary

This quote suggests that painting from nature is not simply about replicating or copying what one sees, but rather about capturing and expressing one's personal sensations and feelings about the subject. It emphasizes the importance of bringing one's own perspective, interpretation, and emotions into the artwork created. Painting from nature becomes a way to translate and convey the artist's unique experience and perception of the world onto the canvas, rather than mere imitation of the physical appearance of the object or scene being painted.

Great athletes train their minds as well as their bodies. There are various mental conditioning techniques many use when preparing for an event. Perhaps the best known technique is visualization, creating a mental image not only of the desired result (the gold medal, a new world record, a hole-in-one), but also of every move that will be taken en route to the ultimate goal.
