Painting is mute poetry, and poetry is blind painting

Leonardo Da Vinci
About This Quote

Painting and poetry both have the power to capture and involve the minds and hearts of their viewers. Both of these art forms allow people to explore life and its many facets in a way that is uniquely personal. Words and pictures create a visual experience that without words would be impossible for most of us to fully grasp. Life, like art, can be very complex, yet it is often expressed in such simple ways.
