"In art, as in love, the instinct is enough."

Art is not just a pleasant and peaceful way to spend your free time. It can be the mirror of the soul, maybe even your own consciousness.

I believe that art is of enormous importance, which may not be discovered, but which exists. First of all art appears in our lives of young children. Some develop better, making wonderful works, and others less, each drawing for himself. We learn to draw beforehand to write, being a pleasant way to calm ourselves and develop our imagination. Then, as we grow up, our abilities grow and we begin to realize what art really means.

Secondly, art can be a way of expressing our feelings and desires without the need for words or deeds. Drawing can also be a dear gift for a special person, given with much love and affection.

Drawing means putting a line around an idea.
Classic definition by Henri Matisse

If painting is madness, it is a sweet madness that people should not only forgive, but even seek it. I look at my face and count my health. Both bear the signs of worries, ambitions and reminders that contortion the physiognomy of each of us. That's why we should love art. It provides those who want to balance their lives, calm, moral fulfillment and even health.

• Jean-Baptiste Camille Corot

Nothing makes me happier than seeing nature and painting what I see.

• Henri Rousseau

Painting is silent poetry.

• Plutarch

Drawing represents the sincerity of art. It is not possible to cheat. It is either good or bad.

• Salvador Dali
