The older I get the more I realize this is true. Great art is not something done in a tub of luke warm water, it’s done with the passion and focus of the bees.
What do you think it takes to create great art?
“The artists, like the bees, must put their lives into the sting they give.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
>i think that accessing an emotion is a vitally important aspect of art. and the better you are at accessing that emotion in a real way (aka the more you are alive), the better of an artist you are. art, as i see it, has two parts: drive, and talent. the former being much more important.
>a little bit of skill and a whole lot of heart! pushing things to the edge, going beyond safe, taking risks, and nowing when to stop as well.
I love this quote! it explains it to a tee 🙂
