When I am finishing a picture, I hold some God-made object up to it – a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand – as a final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If theres a clash between the two, its bad art. – Marc Chagall

In our life there is a single color, as on an artists palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love. – Marc Chagall
