I painted for the eyes, and wrote prose for the ears… Between those senses lay the mind and soul… I enjoyed connecting with people’s deepest thoughts, their hopes and dreams… My pen and brush were tools to achieve my artistic desired effects.

About This Quote

One of my favorite quotes, I believe that the best way to connect with people is to discover their deepest thoughts, their hopes and dreams. Whether it’s through art or writing articles, when you are able to communicate with someone on a deep level, you are able to connect with them on a personal level. This is what I do when writing. By communicating with people about their deepest thoughts, my words are able to touch them in a way that the average person is not able to do.
