32、 be simple.A great deal more depends uponthe heart than upon the head.Appreciation of a rt is not secured by anyelaborate scheme of learning.Art requires a good healthy atmosphere.The mot i ves fo r a rt are s t i l l around about us as they were round aboutthe ancients.And the subjects are also eas
