For the Love of the Arts

Today is the 16th day of Valentine's month of February. My gift to you today is a collection of the many varied arts I love. Unfortunately, not all the arts I love are represented, even if many are here.

Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.

Pablo Picasso

 

Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time."

Thomas Merton

 

If I could say it in words there would be no reason to paint.

Edward Hopper

 

Creativity takes courage.

Henri Matisse

 

In a decaying society, art, if it is truthful, must also reflect decay. And unless it wants to break faith with its social function, art must show the world as changeable. And help to change it.

Ernst Fischer

 

I have no fear of making changes, destroying the image, etc., because the painting has a life of its own.

Jackson Pollock

 

I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for.

Georgia O'Keefe

 

With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe, and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️
