FAMOUS ART QUOTES, MUSIC QUOTES, PAINTING QUOTES, FILM MAKING QUOTES, PHOTOGRAPHY QUOTES:

The director is the most overrated artist in the world. He is the only artist who, with no talent whatsoever, can be a success for 50 years without his lack of talent ever being discovered.
~ Orson Welles

The world today doesn't make sense, so why should I paint pictures that do?
~ Pablo Picasso

Has anybody ever seen a dramatic critic in the daytime? Of course not. They come out after dark, up to no good.
~ P. G. Wodehouse

When painting, an artist must take care not to trap his soul in the canvas.

Random Appropriation of the Day! (Holiday Edition)

Via Regretsy.com (one of my favorite blogs, it finds weird handmade things for sale on Etsy.com). In case you can't read it, the description says:

An original painting on leather with acrylic paint. Tracy Rose Moyers hand-crafted and hand-painted this Native American Shield. A Native American shield is based on the Warrior's shield. A good shield was believed capable of affording the bearer the protection of the Great Spirit. They frequently bore sacred feathers or symbolic pictures of animals who customarily had appeared to the owner during a vision, which thought to endow him with the qualities of the animals that were depicted.

 ...sure, ok. For those of you in warmer climes, just letting you know our dear friend Punxsutawney Phil predicted 6 more weeks of winter. Thanks, Phil. So much.

Chanel Temporary tattoo

During the latest show to reveal the Chanel collection for 2010 we spotted a few models with lovely temporary tattoos.

Channels interlaced designs around wrists or ankles were created for the show by Peter Philips, International Director of makeup creation for Chanel. These tattoos are temporary tattoos and they have been so successful during the show that Chanel is launching a line of fake tattoos.

The new collection of tattoos is scheduled for March 2010, with drawings of chains, beads, flowers, or the Chanel trademark logo.

These fake tattoos called "The trompe l'oeil Chanel" will be sold £50 for a batch of 5 and there will be something for all body parts.

Basically, we already now that if you want to be hype this summer, you dress will be short and flowery and you will be wearing one of the Chanel tattoos with your best outfit. This is yet another sign that tattoos are hot and very very fashionable at the moment.
