Hey Everyone! I hope y’all are having a wonderful day! Welcome to the WEEK 23 of “FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION” Challenge! *Happy Thursday*
ABOUT THE CHALLENGE
Every Thursday, I will pick up a “prompt word” to be acted upon by y’all. You are free to go wild with your imagination and interpret the “prompt” in any way that you like – photo, prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction, quotes, articles or drawing/painting – whatever works for you!
In short, it’s all about you being the BOSS and choosing the best way possible to express and depict your understanding of the prompt and go berserk!
TOPIC FOR TODAY : ART/ARTIST
Here’s my take on it –
“One ought, every day at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words.”
― Wilhelm Meister’s Apprenticeship
“It is good to love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is well done.”
―
“Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth.”
―
“Art and love are the same thing: It’s the process of seeing yourself in things that are not you.”
― Killing Yourself to Live: 85% of a True Story
“You might as well ask an artist to explain his art, or ask a poet to explain his poem. It defeats the purpose. The meaning is only clear thorough the search.”
―
“Art is the only serious thing in the world. And the artist is the only person who is never serious.”
―
So there you have it folks – my cognizance of the word ART/ARTIST!
Well y’all, what is your take on word ART? Are you the “ARTISTY” kinds and would want to share your ART with us? Or is there a famous ARTIST who’s inspired you, that you’ll love to talk about? Hit me up and share!

Interesting challenge. I’m not clear what to do or what action to take…I love the idea 🙂

(And share the link of your composition here with us!)

I dwell in the splendor of this knowing
This is my life…the life I know
Sometimes it’s hard to speak
It’s so beautiful and sometimes painful
Nevertheless in the surrender
It becomes a light to guide me home
Oh yes!!!! This is brilliant and beautiful!❤️❤️
Thank you. You are so kind! I appreciate you <3
I particularly like the quote including “putting down crayons”! I am still drawing–dreams mostly.
