10 most amazing and iconic arts pieces

Thomas Merton-“Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves

at the same time.”

He said it right before creating any art pieces you are not, in reality, making or drawing something, you are expressing the feeling which was kept inside you and then you  explore yourself. Sometimes you try to understand the meaning of art and steadily you lose yourself inside the captive beauty of the creation. Everyone says that no one is born as a genius, but to be an artist this saying is wrong, to be reflected as a good artist you have to have inborn imaginativeness, creativeness, vision, and innovativeness. This express, you are just like a little bud that will soon be seen as a perfectly grown beautiful flower. To be a good artist is not in your hand, I have no intention to demotivate you but I think this is the reality, nobody can teach you how to become a good artist, yes, of course, you can learn some principles and ways to draw anatomy, characters, painting etcetera. But, unfortunately, it will not help you to be called an artist because the artist is not what you guys might think of, the artist is not a person who will be taught by anyone. He is born as a creator. He is an expresser. He is a viewer having a different perspective, in fact, to understand the feeling or emotion which is expressed in any art piece you yourself need to have a perspective of maker only then you will understand what feelings and emotions the artist is trying to express. So if you say you are an art lover then don’t take it lightly and if you consider yourself an art lover then you are unquestionable can be an artist also. What you need to do is trying to find yourself and with gathering some courage bring a brush and just draw anything and express the things in your own way what you are just courage.
