3. I applied streaks and blobs of colours onto the canvas with a palette knife and made them sing with all the intensity I could Colour is the keyboard, the eyes are the harmonies, the soul is the piano with many strings. The artist is the hand that plays, touching one key or another, to cause vibrations in the soul. Wassily Kandinsky
