GUSTAV KLIMT

i am not interested in myself
as the Object of a picture
in this respEct,
i Am more interested in other people,
particularLy in WomaN, and eVEn
moRe in Other aPPearances.
I am convinced, that i as a person, am
not especially intereStiNg.

You See nothing SpeciaL
I aM a PainTer who paints day after day
froM morNing UntiL NighT.

OTTO MUELLER

my art can not be bought
i will not exchange my feeling for
any earthLy treasure
OtheR people might run
themseves ragged for money
fame
and
HonoR
but i am not taking part
in this.
i would rather lie on the
grass under blooming flowers
let the wind caress me, listen to the hustle
and hustle of the people
-this gives me strength and amuse me.
and
dreaM aWay the DaY
