the mind is an extraordinary thing
it creates these visions of beauty in our heads.
we can look at the world around us
and see nothing but a masterpiece.
we can look at color, and see a way
to capture every detail through a painting.
we can see a canvas, and imagine
what creation will end up on it.
we can see a pencil, and draw what
we see in our minds eye.
no matter where we are
every where we look, we see art.
no matter what we have even if
it is a broken pencil, we will create art.
we dont need 400 dollars worth of art
supplies to make a great masterpiece.
our greatest creations are expelled
through a single object.
