“Colour, as the strange and magnificent expression of the inscrutable spectrum of Eternity, is beautiful and important to me as a painter; I use it to enrich the canvas and to probe more deeply into the object. Colour also decided, to a certain extent, my spiritual outlook, but it is subordinated to life, and above all, to the treatment of form. Too much emphasis on colour at the expense of form and space would make a double manifestation of itself on the canvas, and this would verge on craft work.” ImportantUseBeautifulSpiritualFormCertainSpaceToo MuchObjectsStrangeExpressionDecidedEternityPainterCraftsManifestationColourTreatmentExpensesMagnificentCanvasEmphasisOutlookSpectrumVergeInscrutable Author:Max Beckmann
“There is no small degree of malicious craft in fixing upon a season to give a mark of enmity and ill-will: a word--a look, which at one time would make no impression, at another time wounds the heart, and, like a shaft flying with the wind, pierces deep, which, with its own natural force, would scarce have reached the object aimed at.” GivingLooksHeartForceNaturalObjectsWindDegreesSeasonsMarkIllWoundsFlyingImpressionCraftsOne TimeMaliceScarceFixingPierceEnmityMaliciousAnother TimeIll Will Book:Delphi Complete Works of Laurence Sterne (Illustrated) Source: Delphi Complete Works of Laurence Sterne (Illustrated)
“Ever since I was little, I’ve loved making hand-made cards and presents and arts & crafts for people. The book gives me a similar experience. I love being able to hold this object in my hands and say, “This is mine. I made this. It is a gift for you.” I love that feeling. Especially since this particular object contains ten years worth of my poems.” PeopleGivingYearsLittlesArtMadeBookFeelingsHandsAbleLove IsObjectsMinesParticularTenGive MeCardsCrafts Author:Sarah Kay
“The division between the useful arts and the fine arts must not be understood in too absolute a manner. In the humblest work of the craftsmen, if art is there, there is a concern for beauty, through a kind of indirect repercussion that the requirements of the creativity of the spirit exercise upon the production of an object to serve human needs.” IfsNeedsHumansKindArtSpiritCreativityObjectsFineExerciseUnderstoodArt IsConcernAbsolutesProductionsCraftsDivisionRequirementsFine ArtsRepercussionsHuman NeedsIndirectCraftsman Author:Jacques Maritain
