Artist Paul Klee on Relieving Stress

Klee was a multi passionate artist who studied art and the violin. He was in his 30’s before he focused on his art career. Even then, he changed his style often to defy categorization.  

He believed that creativity comes from beyond consciousness and that making art was a form of mediation. He said, “I paint in order not to cry.”
