“Art is a course in personal development that has no reliable diploma and no known end. The pursuit of art instructs in beauty as well as ugliness, fantasy as well as common sense.

Art gives joy because it is joy.” GivingWellsArtSoulEndsPainJoyCoursesLevelsCommonBrainKnownFantasyDevelopmentArt IsProfessionPersonal DevelopmentPursuitCommon SenseUglinessDiploma Author:Robert Genn
“Art is a tyrant. It demands heart, brain, soul, body. The entireness of the votary. Nothing less will win its highest favor. I wed art. It is my husband, my world, my life dream, the air I breathe.

“The academic teaching on beauty is false. We have been misled, but so completely misled that we can no longer find so much as a shadow of a truth again. The beauties of the Parthenon, the Venuses, the Nymphs, the Narcisusses, are so may lies. Art is not the application of a canon of beauty, but what the instinct and the brain can conceive independently of that canon.” MayHas BeensArtLyingBrainTeachingArt IsShadowInstinctApplicationAcademicVenusMisledCanonNymphsParthenon Author:Pablo Picasso

It's an experience - physical and intellectual.” FeelsHeartArtImportantAbleStrongChallengesEmotionBrainIntellectualArt IsStomachProvokingStrong Emotions Author:Camille Henrot
“Making art, being creative, is risky, especially for actors, but everybody on the set is being creative. You're putting yourself out there with ideas, and to have your brain be free of stress so that it can actually do its best work, it feels like you want to have a real sense of intimacy and connection and trust with everybody.” WantFeelsArtIdeasRealActorsBrainCreativeLike YouArt IsConnectionsStressIntimacyWorking ItBe CreativeBest WorkPutting Yourself Out There Author:Lynn Shelton
“That's what I like about the idea of the aesthetic experience, the idea of both enjoying looking at works of art and how they kind of talk to you, and also the process of making art, getting back to that idea of the aesthetic experience of making art is very important, It's another way of thinking. Instead of just using your brain, you're using your hands to think with. They're different connections, the brain that comes through the fingertips as opposed that comes through the eyes and ears.” ThinkingKindArtImportantDifferentEyeEnjoyBrainArt IsAesthetic Author:Michael C.
