What is art? 11/29-12/3

          What is art? Many people have their own opinion on that question. Some thinks it just an artist in a room painting a bowl of fruit. Art can come in many forms. My opinion on art is that it can be anything that your mind lets it be. If you just stare at a painting of a chair in a corner and say what is the point of that. But if you let your mind wonder and think of up a story for why that chair is their or think of a message behind it then that to you can be art. If you can think of something about the story, painting or drawing and find something beneath the surface it can be art. If you want it to be art it can be art. It there is a pile of junk in corner and you think why the heck is this junk here get it out of here right now. You aren’t trying using your imagination. If you can look at that pile of junk and find message or maybe see a creature shape out of it. Then you are using your mind. Art can be basically anything if you let it be. Some people stick with the strict ways and don’t use their imagination. If it’s a paining hanging on a wall and you just some “Ohh it’s a wonderful peace of art”. Without even looking at it, you have no real reason why to you that piece of work is art. Then it isn’t a real piece of work to you it just a painting on a wall you just think it is art. You have no connection or any thought behind. That is my definition of art you must have message, story, or even a thought about it for you to consider it art.
