Though a living cannot be made from art, art makes life worth living. It makes starving, living.

John Sloan
About This Quote

Art is not an end, but a journey through life. It is impossible to live without art and impossible not to live with art. The world is full of people who seem to be born with the talent and ability to create. Their work will always be different and will never become stale. They will continue to grow and learn and each new piece will show the world something new, something that they didn’t see in the last one.
