One of the biggest manifestations of internal beauty and freedom of expression is Art.

ever since I was a little kid, I had this special sensation when looking at paintings hanging on the walls of theaters or government buildings and for some reason that I could not explain, I just liked staring at those paintings without understanding why I could not get enough of it.
