Quote by Wassily Kandinsky

“The true work of art is born from the 'artist': a mysterious, enigmatic, and mystical creation. It detaches itself from him, it acquires an autonomous life, becomes a personality, an independent subject, animated with a spiritual breath, the living subject of a real existence of being.”

Many deaths must go into reaching our maturity in Christ, many letting goes.”
