Egon Schiele

I am not mad, I am merely seeing clearly.

Beauty lies in the broken lines.

Society cages the spirit, art sets it free.

My portraits reveal the hidden self.

Death is the ultimate pose.

I draw what others dare not see.

The nude is the purest truth.

In art, vulnerability is strength.

Lines twist like the soul in torment.

I live for the moment of creation.

Critics see ugliness, I see essence.

The world is my studio, humanity my model.

Pain fuels the brush.

Art is rebellion against the ordinary.

Eyes in my paintings hold secrets untold.

I am the prisoner of my own vision.

Forms bend to reveal the inner chaos.

Love is a distorted embrace.

The sketch is the soul's first breath.

I mock convention with every stroke.
