“The true painter must be able, with the most usual things, to have the most unusual ideas”
— Salvador Dali

Simplified Meaning:
A real artist sees ordinary things in a special way and comes up with new and unique ideas from them. Imagine a painter who can turn a simple apple into an exciting piece of art that makes people think differently about apples. This means looking at everyday things with fresh eyes and lots of creativity. For example, Vincent van Gogh painted his old brown shoes, but the way he painted them made people feel different emotions and see the shoes in a new light. In your own life, if you can think creatively about normal stuff, you might solve problems in new ways or come up with interesting projects at work or school. It’s about finding magic in the mundane.
