Outside Source: Leonardo da Vinci
Here is a quote that spoke to me:
“Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and
poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen.”
― Leonardo da Vinci
I find this quote to mean that an artist has a story in
their mind which elicits the painting to be created. By viewing the painting,
one can imagine the story being told. It is similar to the famous phrase “a
painting is worth a thousand words”. Poetry, on the other hand, is words that
paint a picture in your mind. It allows the viewer to be creative and engage
the use of their imagination.
