Beautiful Quote
I was looking through some new blogs. Stumbled upon the following quote and beautiful artwork. See  Donna's Muse

"A work of art is the unique result of a unique temperament. Its beauty comes from the fact that the author (of all arts) is what he/she is, and has nothing to do with the fact that other people want what they want. Indeed, the minute an artist takes notice of what other people want and tries to supply the demand, he/she ceases to be an artist but becomes a dull or amusing craftsman, and honest or dishonest tradesman. Art is the most intense mode of individualism that the workd has know. Alone and without any reference to his/her neighbors and without any interference, the artist can fashion a beautiful thing, and if he/she does not do it for his own pleasure, he/she is not an artist." Oscar Wilde
