The following quotes are from P. R. Sarkar's work Abhimata, The Opinion. 
    

     "The ideal of an artist is to be established in a transcendent realm, beyond the limits of the senses. So the artist, or more precisely, the worshippers  of fine arts, have to be spiritual aspirants. Only those who look upon everything of the world as Spirit can realize in everything a subtle, blissful, Transcendental Entity. The greater the artists' understanding of their kinship with God, the greater their art. Those who possess a creative faculty yet do not seek the Transcendental Entity, cannot create a worthy or successful work of art."
