While watching the biography of Vincent Van Gogh at the Bio Channel, one tranquil morning, the narrator said ... 'Van Gogh never sold a painting and gave away all of his paintings. One recipient even used his paintings for target shooting.' =[ I found myself in tears, again in tears.

Some people... small minded, unappreciative, ... do not see the goodness, intentions, aspirations, dreams of artists. The artist's creations, may be a photograph, a poem, a song, a casserole dish, a cake, one's Christmas tree, a table setup, fruits in a bowl, a painting... all these ,however simple... are expressions of the artist's soul.

“Art is the power aimed at developing the soul.”
