Where do you see beauty?
"The soul that sees beauty may sometimes walk alone." This Johann Wolfgang von Goethe quote is one with which I, as an artist, can really relate. Every artist whose sets out to paint something beautiful needs to take their own path. And the results are not always what others consider beautiful.
Here's an example of how everyone's taste for beauty varies. At my exhibit of the "Beautiful Horses of Michigan" paintings in March, I asked attendees to vote for their favorite painting. Almost all the 37 paintings had numerous votes! Each person defines beauty differently.
I find this amazing and soooo interesting. Our tastes are all so different! But however you define it .... may you take time - each day - to reflect on something that is beautiful.
