Lee Krasner

Women artists have always had to fight twice as hard for half the recognition.

Color is the soul of painting; without it, form is lifeless.

I never stopped evolving as an artist, even in my later years.

The Abstract Expressionists were a family, dysfunctional but brilliant.

Persistence is the key to any artist's success.

I used to say to Jackson, 'Paint what you feel, not what you see.'

My Little Images series was born out of grief and renewal.

Art isn't about perfection; it's about honest expression.

I was always the serious one in the room full of wild artists.

Legacy isn't given; it's earned through relentless work.

Pollock's drip technique inspired me, but I made it my own.

In art, as in life, contradictions create depth.

I painted through the pain of loss; it was my therapy.

Don't wait for inspiration; create it.

My studio was my sanctuary, away from the chaos.

Form follows feeling in abstract art.

I outlived many who doubted me, and my work endures.

Jackson and I were equals in talent, if not in fame.

Experimentation is the lifeblood of creativity.

I once told a critic, 'My art speaks louder than words ever could.'
