You have such a lovely blog. That little mouse looks just like one that my friend Penny created. Such a delightful theatre. I liked when Dore said, "The Art of living with purpose, a connection to life around me noticing everything in itself is art." I do believe that some of the simplest things we do IS indeed, art. Thank you for your kind words on Jess' engagement. Your comment was very special. It's nice to meet you, Vera.<br /><br />~SheriRed Rose Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685747099912989862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2047532841234141141.post-20147407609589441992015-06-02T02:47:06.460-04:002015-06-02T02:47:06.460-04:00Two of the most talented people on the planetTwo of the most talented people on the planetPura Vidahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04423379787232688763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2047532841234141141.post-46677267480496734472015-06-01T13:48:57.699-04:002015-06-01T13:48:57.699-04:00Oh Vera, you are so sweet!

I so agree with what she said about Art and the feelings and the emotions that it evokes. Art can be created in so many mediums yet we all connect through the emotions and the stories behind each piece. Thank you for this.

I enjoyed your w...Hi Vera,<br /><br />So lovely to meet you!<br /><br />I enjoyed your words and images today, on your soulful question, 'What is art?', and instantly agreed with the brilliant Aristotle's reply, for art definitely evokes all different kind of feelings, thoughts, and even memories, whatever its form, whether it be a sculpture, a painting, or a poem. <br /><br />Dore is a talented artist, (that, we can easily see), but like any artist's creations, it is the feelings that overcome us, when in the presence of fine art, that ultimately capture our attention, making us feel alive with emotion, and a spirited splash of life. <br /><br />To conclude, your poem is inspiring, and a wonderful tribute to your initial question. Thanks for this most intriguing post!<br /><br />Poppy<br />P.S.: Thanks, also for your sweet comment at Kris' and for following Poppy View.<br /><br />Happy Memorial Day weekend!<br /><br />PoppyPoppyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08980323586402386609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2047532841234141141.post-3821381877918285072015-05-22T12:05:59.890-04:002015-05-22T12:05:59.890-04:00Oh, what a beautiful, thought producing and emotio...Oh, what a beautiful, thought producing and emotional post.<br /><br />I live with an artist and I love watching his process. I like that a painting can sit on the easel for months and all of a sudden he will go back and change something.<br /><br />Blogging has brought me so much and one unexpected bonus is a new way of looking at the world, art, home decor, life, nature ... I love "creating" photographs. I take 20 pictures of the same thing, load them into the computer and then go back to change a few things and take more photos.<br /><br />So, I guess I see art as a process to create something (anything) that pleases. <br /><br />Steve puts as much effort into creating his meals as he does in the presentation. And he has taught me that there is an art to setting the table to compliment the meal and its presentation.<br /><br />Art is LIFE.Art and Sandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09070124859845536964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2047532841234141141.post-35047038885653909052015-05-21T19:41:37.665-04:002015-05-21T19:41:37.665-04:00You have so many exquisite and beautiful pieces of...You have so many exquisite and beautiful pieces of art from Dore!

I love what Aristotle said "The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance."<br />~Aristotle~ This sums it up for me. Dore's pieces are so amazing, it was fun to read the interview and to see what her thoughts are on art. Thank you so much. Beautiful!

A true honor, and I hope in some way I have added to your days with our friendship.<br /><br />I want to comment that all the ladies comments are brilliant and of course some stick our more with statements as to our heavenly planet we live on and who provides that for us. Of course I could be an artist if that didn't have something to do with how my energy shifts with the movement of art that Imtake notice of all about me. A small scarp of tin, or old piece of rusted wire left by some handy and job that knowone has taken the time to clean up for years, those pieces are my beautiful finds that became soulful use in my art pieces. I am more them happy to have been the chosen artist to stumble across trash to most, ones may not know that cearel boxes that everyone eats and throws away become some of the paper that goes into my work of Cartapesta.<br /><br />You my dear are an artist that amazes me! Because of that I pick up on the energy in your words. Life, and love, and something of your experiences is created and inspired in my pieces. <br /><br />It's so apparent when one gets to know you that you live real art, they just need to take notice of how you write, your poetry (profoundly) your home walls, designs, collections your restful place of sleep so artfully calming, yes my dear you are why I took early notice of way back when you were just a blog reader :)<br /><br />You have created a beautiful present for me here, a gift from your heart, and I am for ever greatful that you have the heart that you do.<br /><br />Love you girl,<br /><br />Soon<br /><br />Xoxo<br />Dore Burlap Luxehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16134718817693134037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2047532841234141141.post-89166688941431561482015-05-21T12:33:36.770-04:002015-05-21T12:33:36.770-04:00What a wonderful post!

I soooooo connect with her. Her love of Renoir's work (I saw 'The Umbrellas' in London and it was one of those monumental moments in my life - I stood there crying silent tears I was so touched by it's beauty)... her love of Miss Clara (I've followed Miss Clara for years and am enamored by her work), and I adore Elise Valdorcia's incredible work as well!<br /><br />I think Doré's pieces have a rustic simplicity and organic quality to them which allows the viewer the opportunity to complete the piece with their own perceptions - making them all the more personal to them.<br /><br />I don't think it at all selfish for an artist to create for oneself ~ to me, that is the true meaning of art. For the soul to reach out and create something that is missing ~ something that must be made in order to express what is bursting in their heart.<br /><br />Again. Most loving of you to share a little bit more about Doré' with all of us ~ and as always, your thought provoking poetry has stopped me from my daily running about to THINK and FEEL. In a word, art.<br /><br />Much love,<br />Lin<br /><br /><br />Lin from A {tiny} Cottage In The Woodshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09852855396042947932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2047532841234141141.post-71702550358534902792015-05-21T10:38:07.835-04:002015-05-21T10:38:07.835-04:00A delightful post Vera.

Her work is both mystical and magical to me, most in a palette of white giving them an essence of purity.<br />I own a piece of Miss Clara's work and she too captivates the tiniest of detail encouraging the observer to venture within her magic...

I enjoyed your poetry and interview with ...Hi Vera. I enjoyed your poetry and interview with Dore. There is a mystery and soulfulness to Dore's art and you own some really wonderful pieces. I agree very much with Diana's comment about what art is and couldn't say it better myself. We've been receiving quite a bit of rain here the past ten days, making the morning and evening skies absolutely stunning. Like a huge, glorious watercolor. This is by the hand of God and no human artist could ever come close to capturing it. As Dennis says, "I'm inspired to try, but my art will always fall short of His glory." When speaking of music composition Bach said, "The aim and final end of all music should be none other than the glory of God and the refreshment of the soul." I feel this is true of all artistry. Hugs to you, dear one. ~ Nancy<br /><br /><br /><br />A Joyful Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08604235087317891071noreply@blogger.com
