Through the diverse and eclectic work of over 90 artists  familiar and some not-yet-discovered quotes are brought to life. Its an eye-opening experience to see how these talented artists interpret modern and age-old wisdom. To quote Georgia OKeefe  \"Art is not what you see \u2028 but what you make others see.\" And therein lies the magic of this book - it expands your awareness  so that you see  not only with new eyes  but come to understand how art can illustrate and illuminate more than words alone can express. 100 quotes were carefully chosen by Lesley to create a positive book that moves the reader to take action on their dreams. If the quotes alone dont do the trick  the artwork certainly will. Artists were free to interpret their quote in their own way  with their medium of choice. The book includes wonderful examples of digital art  art quilts  fiber art  mixed media  collage  assemblage and paintings. There is something to delight all tastes. Artists in particular will find this compendium a source of ideas and techniques for their own art. While its not a how-to book  information on materials and techniques used are provided for each artwork.  STELLAR REVIEWS for QUOTES ILLUSTRATED \"Thought-provoking. Challenging. Beautiful.
