Leonardo da Vinci
“The painter has the Universe in his mind and hands.”
Leonardo da Vinci

Osho
“To be creative means to be in love with life. You can be creative only if you love life enough that you want to enhance its beauty, you want to bring a little more music to it, a little more poetry to it, a little more dance to it.”
Osho
