"It is all very well to copy what one sees, but it is far better to draw what one now only sees in one’s memory. That is a transformation in which imagination collaborates with memory." More In Art "Good art provides people with a vocabulary about things they can’t articulate."― Mos Def "The art of living well and the art of dying well are one."― Epicurus "A man paints with his brains and not with his hands."― Michelangelo
