A dip into the past..

.Roses are black.

*Wednesday, October 04, 2006

Almost all of us are familiar with the painting of Mona Lisa.I've heard that the artist,Leonardo Da Vinci actually hired entertainers to amuse his subject when he was painting her portrait.Thus,that famous subtle smile.But is she really happy?
I've always had a certain liking for Vincent Van Gogh,amongst all the artists.Undoubtedly he was one of the most eccentric,but he was also one of the most honest.His colours on his pieces were painted to reflect his mood at that period of time...and that is what I admired most about his art.Even when he was impoverished,and people didn't want to buy his sad,gloomy paintings...He didn't revert back to painting happy,yellow sunflowers.But I must admit..he did have alot of ailments through his lifetime...>.<
Haha,I'm in a class full of cam-whores.Let's face it,most of us DO like taking photos.Why?Most of the time its becoz we want to capture the Kodak moment,or life as we wish it to be.How we hold on to these memories...wishing that these times will never end.Some take photos for the glamour,and similiarly...don't we all wish we could stay in there?

*on the subject of photos and paintings...
You painted me a picture of world,and the Kingdom of Heaven.You've shown me the painting of my redeemtion,and my heritance.Can you paint me a picture of tomorrow?I need Your insight.
