Hello fellow artists ! I'm happy and proud to say that our group has welcomed over 3000 members now and is still growing ; u ; I still remember when I opened this group a year ago and how excited I felt when I saw first members joining ; u ; Today we have more members than I had ever expected - thank you for being around and supporting traditional art with all the love and passion it deserves Being an artist, regardless of media, is an adventure of a lifetime, an opportunity to become 'immortal' thanks to our works and a beautiful path to pick for every individual believing that only the sky is the limit. To celebrate this wonderful moment I have collected some inspiring quotations revolving around art - may they be with you and remind you about the beauty and immortality of artistic expression If you know any motivating quations to share with us, write them below this journal and keep up your great work friends}

The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls. - Pablo Picasso
A picture is a poem without words. - Horace
A good painting to me has always been like a friend. It keeps me company, comforts and inspires. - Hedy Lamarr
Art is the only way to run away without leaving home. - Twyla Tharp
In art, the hand can never execute anything higher than the heart can imagine. - Ralph Waldo Emerson
The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web. - Pablo Picasso
Lying in bed would be an altogether perfect and supreme experience if only one had a colored pencil long enough to draw on the ceiling. - Gilbert K. Chesterton
Art ... is an attempt to bring order out of chaos. - Stephen Sondheim
To touch art is to touch the mind; to touch the mind is to touch a life. - J. David Arnold
The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without work. - Emile Zola
Without freedom, no art; art lives only on the restraints it imposes on itself, and dies of all others. - Albert Camus

Write it, paint it, sculpt it, quilt it, collage it, set it to music, blog it, somehow, in some way, sometimes against great odds, we will tell our tale and leave behind traces of our existence. - Martine Gourbault
