“The arts are not just a nice thing to have or to do if there is free time or if one can afford it. Rather, paintings and poetry, music and fashion, design and dialogue, they all define who we are as a people and provide an account of our history for the next generation.” ― Michelle Obama
“What gives my art the most meaning is when I can connect with others through it. When people say that my music has helped them, or it makes them feel good, or it inspires them, that is what gives my art lasting meaning to me.” – Lindsey Stirling
“The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.” – Aristotle
My family lost a dear artist friend this week who painted and created amazing glass items from earrings to sculptures. The pictures in this post are all works that I am privileged to own.
I love this post. Thanks for sharing some beautiful creations.
Thank you!
