For pure joy, I look at a small painting by Arbit Blatas. An ocean liner is at the center of the composition, perhaps ready to depart. It holds the promise of discovery.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've always been drawn to the ocean.
The ocean is a central image. It is the symbolism of a great journey.
It is of great use to the sailor to know the length of his line, though he cannot with it fathom all the depths of the ocean.
I find the presence of the sea quite inspiring, and sometimes I do just get out and walk around and take in the sea breeze to try and clear my mind.
I really feel that there are things in the ocean that we have no idea about.
On life's vast ocean diversely we sail. Reasons the card, but passion the gale.
We've explored very little of the ocean. We really don't know what's out there. But people think we've figured it all out.
Great art picks up where nature ends.
I get inspired in certain places. You have to write in places like Amsterdam or Paris or New Zealand, when you're standing on a yacht, looking out at the middle of the ocean.
We must not show to all and sundry the secrets of the waters flowing in ocean and river, or the devices that work on these waters. Let there be convened a council of experts and masters in mechanical art to deliberate what is needed to compose and construct these works.
