“Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will.”

There have been many times I've seen a drawing or a painting just at it's beginning and tried to figure out what was going on,  It truly amazes me the imaginations some people have.They can start out with something as simple as a couple lines here, a squiggle there, and then an 20-30 minutes later it's on it's way to becoming a personal masterpiece. So many different artists create a work of art from what they see, and it all gets our imaginations turning. Our desires to see things through our own perspective also creates a different scene found in a piece of art work, that may not have the same meaning as we thought. I do believe in the phrase " A picture is worth a thousand words" because it's true. You can have five people staring at the same painting for a couple minutes and ask them what they see, Each one will probably see something different than the other. This is what is so amazing about art. Art is so complex or simply, simple. The imagination goes a long way and when it is shared across a piece of paper or canvas it creates something in other people's minds.
Art truly is amazing and so are the artists behind all those works of art.
