Chosen Quotes to Share with (SEVEN)

"Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter."
-Oscar Wilde
--------------------------------
my interpretation..
when we see an art which is very lively, and it is emitting a strong sense of emotions through the use of colours, lines, space, texture... it shows passion..
it reflects the artist himself.
when an artist paints, he pours life, his emotions into his art. regardless of the subject of the portrait.
no matter how identical the subject of the portrait is, comparing to the flesh covered warm blooded human, the portrait is still not a portrait of the subject, but of the artist himself.
it is the artist in disguise, behind the many faces of different subjects he had painted.
he replicate himself..
he is every where...
with his passion instilled in every art work he had painted...
advancing into the utopia of art..
