I was proofreading a paper for a student the other day and stumbled upon the most beautiful and accurate quote regarding art by Keats: “Art is its intensity, capable of making all disagreables evaporate.” (Keats)

After a crazy day, sometimes looking at something that is truly beautiful can help to calm the nerves.  How true are these words?

His quote goes nicely with my newest Pinterest board (feel free to follow) called lovely.simple.

So, I blew my "deadline", but it was self-imposed so I am being realistic and kind to myself and allowing for a little "extension". 29 paintings will happen, not to worry!  Check it out on ETSY.
