I enjoy collecting quotes on art and living. Be inspired today:

“If I could say it in words there would be no reason to paint.” ~ Edward Hopper

“Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint you can on it.” ~ Danny Kaye

“Out of suffering comes creativity. You cannot spell painting without pain.” ~ John Lithgow

“Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.” Pablo Picasso

“Nobody is bored when he is trying to make something that is beautiful, or to discover something that is true.” ~ William Inge

“An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision.” ~ James McNeill Whistler

“The true work of art is but a shadow of the divine perfection.” ~ Michelangelo

“What is art but a way of seeing?” ~ Thomas Berger

    Hey Vickie…Though thr trials never seem to end and are with us in one form or another I can still say all is well.I am having to fight to get my state funded insurance back right now.They just dropped me because they say we make too much money(we are still below state and federal poverty level)because I occasionally babysit granddaughter and state pays me…But I am believing God for a miracle when I get my hearing…Sharon :-)
