Art is something that makes you breathe with a different kind of happiness. Lately, I have been admiring loads of artworks and comparing the feeling I get while staring at some of them and I came to the conclusion that Art is truly the journey of a free soul. My latest obsession is "Flower Art" especially Flowers In A Vase, there is something about them, don't you agree?

| Flowers in a Metal Vase. Creator: Abraham Mignon. Date:1670. Institution: Mauritshuis. Provider: Digitale Collectie. Providing Country: Netherlands. One thing I have come to understand about Art is that -there is no muse in Art because Art in itself is "Free", you can't use up creativity because the more you use it, the more you have, creativity takes courage and when I see certain artwork I can't help but admire the amazing soul behind it When you stare at the photo above, what comes to mind? Take a moment to savor it, inhale it, exhale it, close your eyes, and be truthful to yourself about how the photo makes you feel. |

Below are some of my favorite Inspirational Art quotes
Art is a line around your thoughts.
― Gustav Klimt
Inspiration is for amateurs. The rest of us just show up and get the work done. If you wait around for the clouds to part and a bolt of lightning to strike you in the brain, you're not going to make an awful lot of work.
― Chuck Close
A work of art that did not begin in emotion is not art.
― Paul Cezanne
Art is never finished, only abandoned.

There is no must in art because art is free.
