  “What a strange thing is memory, and hope;

  it paints pictures of the past and of the day.”

  The creative act is not performed by the artist alone;

  "Angel by the sea" 2004

  In art, truth and reality begin
  when one no longer understands
  what one is doing or what one knows,
  and when there remains an energy
  that is all the stronger
  for being constrained,
  controlled and compressed.
  
  Henri Matisse
  _______

  My next drawing is very meaningful to me... I was reading a book about the concentration camps and such, and I just started drawing... it ended up looking like a collage... there's an arm with the id numbers, and a lot of hebrew writings... the big letters spell out the word "zachor" which means "remember" and the smaller words are daily prayers. I also added the gate to auschwitz that translates to "work makes free", a star that jews would have to wear, and other names of concentration camps.

  

  "Never forget" 2004

  Art is contemplation.
  It is the pleasure of the mind
  which searches into nature and which
  there divines the spirit of which Nature
  herself is animated.
  Auguste Rodin

  “Art is not an end in itself,
  but a means of addressing humanity.”
  M.P. Mussorgsky
  _______

  Art is unquestionably one of the
  purest and highest elements in
  human happiness. It trains the mind
  through the eye, and the eye through the mind.
  As the sun colors flowers,
  so does art color life.
  John Lubbock
