Quotes about… Illusion

We have the illusion that working for ourselves means having lots of free time. Linda Blondheim

Painting comes to reality through illusion. An illusion that allows us to make a leap of faith; to believe. To believe in a blue that can be the wing of a bug or a thought. It makes our invisible visible. Squeak Carnwath

Better a dish of illusion and a hearty appetite for life, than a feast of reality and indigestion therewith. Harry A. Overstreet

    I just love the Squeak Carnwath quote! Art is always an interpretation of reality, whether you are representing a still life, a portrait, an emotion, you are still asking the viewer to take that leap of faith into your world.
    Thanks for the quotes for this creative mind to feed on!
