"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up."
(Pablo Picasso)

"The basic impulse, however, cannot be explained as an urge to copy nature; it can be understood only when one realizes that perceiving is not passive recording but understanding, and that understanding can take place only through the conception of definable shapes. For this reason art, like science, begins not with attempts to duplicate nature, but with highly abstract general principles. In the arts, these principles take the form of elementary shapes".
(Rudolf Arnheim 1986)
