Our life seems to be impossible without art. It really occupies an important part in our daily life. Art offers us not only pleasure and amusement but it is also a vehicle of culture and education. Art penetrates into all spheres and sides of your life and makes it brighter, richer and more intellectual. People like and know different types of art. Some of them are fond of painting. Others have a special liking for music or they have a passion for literature.

But all of us cant help admiring the canvases of such great painters as Thomas Gainsborough, Constable, Hogarth, Rembrandt etc. So, art unites different people, influences the development of personality, makes our inner world richer, feels our soul with different feelings.
