Art / Life / Wisdom from Aloria Weaver

in #art7 years ago

For many an artist, the goal is always just out of reach.

As technical skills advance, creative vision advances concurrently, so that the ultimate goal is continually receding. To be a true artist is to consign oneself to a lifetime of unattainable work. It is to acknowledge the infinite vastness across which one is reaching; to recognize the immensity of learning that is possible and, with all humility, to dedicate oneself to that study, knowing that a single lifetime cannot possibly contain the resources of energy necessary to accomplish this lofty ambition. This humble and resolute dedication, in the face of impossibility, is simultaneously both a reverent and revolutionary act.

great painting! I love the colors!

You're so nice for commenting on this post. For that, I gave you a vote!

CoSM?

Indeed, CoSM 2017!

Yep, I thought I recognised those windows.

The blue is similar to the one on Frida Kahlo painting. Why do you need the stick? Is to support the hand that is painting?
