“Art is not the application of a canon of beauty but what the instinct and the brain can conceive beyond any canon. When we love a woman we don't start measuring her limbs. ”
— Pablo Picasso

Simplified Meaning:
Art isn't about following strict rules or guidelines about what is beautiful. It's more about what our instincts and imagination can create, which goes beyond any set rules. Think about falling in love with someone. You don't pull out a ruler and measure their arms and legs to decide if you love them. Love is about feelings and connection, not numbers and measurements. Similarly, creating art is about expressing thoughts, emotions, and ideas that go beyond just trying to fit into a definition of beauty. You can use this idea in your life by trusting your instincts and creativity rather than always trying to follow set rules or standards.
