ART THOUGHTS EIGHT
The artist does not see things as they are, but as he is. ~Alfred Tonnelle
An artist is a dreamer consenting to dream of the actual world. ~George Santayana

WHAT IS ARTQUEST? Many of us remember the joy we felt as a child, dancing exuberantly, drawing with excitement, or creating marvelously layered stories, but now that seem so far away. Of course, even if the creativity is still accessible, what about talent, skill and ideas? I will be posting a series of essays, each built upon the one before that I hope will help you recapture that early spark. Please read in order, starting at the introduction.

Hello,
I wanna tell you firstly a big "THANK YOU". You know, may be I decided to write in english my articles because I wanna do "my english" best. I know until I will have my best I will do a lot of errors. So thank you again, and Im very happy because you like lots of things that I like. I did't wrote all about me on my blog, but I can do lots of things with this mind. Like you saw I like theatre very much. I actually trying to make a scenery, and to play it in this summer. One of my friends, firstly helped me with some ideas, but after some weeks , he said: " Ok, I'm boring doing this, just leave theatre."...I said no. I wanna see my evolution. You know I like to sing too. I sang at some events but I want more. And photography too. Now I have in my "WISHES LIST" ...to buy a cam and a guitar. I saw one on a site and till that moment..I dream every day and night at it :))...sorry but I'm just a seventeen years old teen with lot of dreams :)...Kiss you
