Finished Painting & An Artist Quote For Your Weekend



For a couple of days this past week, Bob painted a wheel cover for a client that he talked with at the past artshow at the Virginia Beach Convention Center. 

Here it is, the finished product! Turned out awesome!










And here is an artist quote from Vincent Van Gogh for your weekend!









“It is good to love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is well done.” 
― Vincent van Gogh

Artist Quote of the Week: Leonardo DaVinci



Our Artist Quote of the Week is from Leonardo DaVinci, one of the greatest artists that ever lived. He was a talented artist and an inventor beyond his time! 






“Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.” ~ Leonardo da Vinci


Poetry paints a picture in your mind as you read it and paintings, as well as other forms of art, can speak to your heart and soul without saying a word. 








Why I love art and poetry!

Artist Quote of the Week - Pablo Picasso



Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” ~Pablo Picasso



                                                                                     













I know that when Bob is creating his art, it makes his heart and soul come alive.  The "dust" or troubles and monotony of everyday life disappear for a while and it brings him happiness and joy.

Quote From An Inspiration to Psychedelic Art - Peter Max




Here is a quote that my husband Bob really loves, from one of his artistic inspirations over the years. Peter Max was very influential in Bob's psychedelic surf and abstract art. He was introduced to Peter's art by his aunt and has been using vibrant colors ever since.


"I never know what I'm going to put on the canvas. The canvas paints itself. I'm just the middleman."
~Peter Max, Famous 60s Artist
