 Good day my brothers and sisters.

Peace and love to you &

all creation.

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

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

 

 A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul.

 One eye sees, the other feels

 You might as well ask an artist to explain his art, or ask a poet to explain his poem. It defeats the purpose. The meaning is only clear thorough the search.

 Anybody can look at a pretty girl and see a pretty girl. An artist can look at a pretty girl and see the old woman she will become. A better artist can look at an old woman and see the pretty girl that she used to be. But a great artist-a master-and that is what Auguste Rodin was-can look at an old woman, protray her exactly as she is...and force the viewer to see the pretty girl she used to be...and more than that, he can make anyone with the sensitivity of an armadillo, or even you, see that this lovely young girl is still alive, not old and ugly at all, but simply prisoned inside her ruined body. He can make you feel the quiet, endless tragedy that there was never a girl born who ever grew older than eighteen in her heart...no matter what the merciless hours have done to her. Look at her, Ben. Growing old doesn't matter to you and me; we were never meant to be admired-but it does to them.

 Creativity takes courage.

Know that you are loved. Please pass this art on, which is done to paint a little peace into the universe. Remember that anyone can send me an email and,or an image of themselves or art/whatever your eye is drawn to! (petgkimb@gmail.com) Blessings from me here in Luton near London. Planet Earth..
