Statement
|
"Painting is a creative process, so what exactly happens during the creation of a painting is up for interpretation. However, most art experts agree that painting is an emotional process, where the artist's thoughts and emotions come into play as well as his or her senses. This is why it's important to work on various forms of art, such as painting, drawing, printmaking, and sculpture, and learn how to use your various senses, such as your eyes, ears, nose, and fingertips. When you put all your senses together, you create a painting. That is how art is created." - Rajesh Saggi.
