Kinda Interesting Stuff

YAY! Half-way done with my surrealist self-portrait! Should be finished with it in a couple days. Then I'll be off camping with the whole family, then school! Felt like sharing some of my favorite quotes:

"It should not be hard for you to stop sometimes and look into the stains of walls, or ashes of a fire, or clouds, or mud or like places, in which... you may find really marvellous ideas." (Leonardo da Vinci)

"It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to. . . The feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures." (Vincent Van Gogh)

"Imagination is more important than knowledge. For while knowledge defines all we currently know and understand, imagination points to all we might yet discover and create." (Albert Einstein)
