Art lies in concealing art

Sculptors who are good at their work create masterpieces and makes spectators wonder  whether they are real  or they are mere idols. It is the skill of the sculptor that he has recreated something alive into a non living masterpiece. Similarly some paintings may just be a small frame, but they speak for themselves. A well painted portrait may tell a whole story. A movie which has been created  well may bring tears in the eyes of the viewer. This is the power of art. The artist's genius lies in making the spectator feel that what he is watching is real. The skill of an artist whether in painting, in acting or in literature lies in creating a world of reality.
