" "Beforehand I don't make any drawing of the object or objects which I want to paint on the canvas or panel.. ..but I start directly to situate the designed plan on the canvas - After having thoroughly sketched and thought over my composition, especially the arrangement of light and dark, I start to paint it broadly with oil-paint and try as much as possible to achieve the hue or the colouring, in which I want to see my landscape.. ..when it is definitely completed.

Additional quotes by Barend Cornelis Koekkoek
(original Dutch, citaat van B.C. Koekkoek:) [de natuur] alleen schenkt u die bij eene aandachtige beschouwing harer majesteit en grootheid.. .Spreidt zij geene prachttaferelen voor uw oog ten toon, die onmogelijk een ander u zou kunnen beschrijven?. ..die gij naderhand op uwe kamer op het doek of paneel kunt trachten te verwezenlijken.
..on the banks of a very picturesque mountain stream that pours out its crystalline water in four or five waterfalls into the Dussel brook.. .Oh, in this cave, at this crystal flood, I often felt myself so well! Sensations frequently welled up in my bosom at this blessed place that ennoble the soul and make pour out joyful tombs; [they] give the heart impressions that neither greatness or honor can steal from us. An indomitable longing came to me, to learn more and more about these enchanting shades of beautiful and holy nature, and to transfer them on the canvas with my brush.

(original Dutch, citaat van B.C. Koekkoek:) De vrije kunstenaar moet ook den moed bezitten zich van zijn eersten ideën te kunnen losrukken, want de ondervinding leert ons, dat dezelve niet altijd zuiver, ja dikwijls valsch zijn.
