On being an Artist / Designer
Thoughts and quotes on Being an Artist/Designer:
" I cant think of an artist that has not had a complicated but incredible life"-
"If the great artists way of seeing is quite different from that of the ordinary man, the reason for that is his faculty of sight has been educated, from its earliest days, by paintings, drawings, and statues;by the world of art.- Andre Malraux
"Making an object/subject look like what you see is not as important as making the whole piece you paint on feel like what you feel about the object/subject"-Georgia O'Keeffe
