women…

A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent upon arriving. 
A good artist lets his intuition lead him wherever it wants.
– Lao-Tzu 
Art is indeed not the bread but the wine of life.
– Jean Paul Richter
I can’t work without a model. 
I won’t say I turn my back on nature ruthlessly in order to turn a study into a picture, arranging the colors, enlarging and simplifying; 
but in the matter of form I am too afraid of departing from the possible and the true.
– Vincent Van Gogh
To speak of morals in art is to speak of legislature in sex. 
Art is the sex of the imagination.
– George Jean Nathan
 
The artist does not see things as they are, but as he is.
– Alfred Tonnelle
The object of art is to give life a shape. [Midsummer Nights Dream]
– William Shakespeare 
All art is an imitation of nature.
– Seneca
The age of a woman doesn’t mean a thing. 
The best tunes are played on the oldest fiddles.
– Ralph Waldo Emerson 
More art later this week…

    Thank you for your kind words!
    I always try to be careful with sharp objects but sometimes they want to touch me too deep! 🙂

    Oma suosikkini on myos peilaava nainen. Se on jotenkin hieno…

    >>MYTHO
    hm…a verb. Interesting. When the object is ready it lives it own life in our reality…yes, why not a verb!

  11. Jaiks! It is clear, that the artist has been secretly behind my mirror!
    I`ll never be naked again at home!
    … or anywhere else either!

  13. Interesting quotes. When I look ay an object of art, I think of it as a piece of evidence, so to speak. Or, an artifact. It suggests something about a way of being, and engaging with life. The art is in the processes, more than the object. The object is a material fall-out from creative acting. So, art, in this sense is more a verb, than a noun.

  15. I'm catching up from a crazy week!

    LOVE these images of women and the great quotes. The red face is so striking and I feel like I could have modeled for some of the hefty ones! Yeah, I could shed a few pounds.

    You are so excellent at street scenes, catching all the vibrancy of life as it unfolds around you. It's poetic.

    And the Stone House! I love the way you put your "Blogitse" over one of the beams. It's your house! That is a great shot. And the stone is so mesmerizing, just beautiful.

    By the way, CAREFUL with sharp objects!! :>)
