I have a tendency to misread and misinterpret so it's all on me. I used to be better, but it seems lately that I am losing some ability in that area.
Really - I LOVE deep thoughtful discussion.
Art is - beauty in the eye of the beholder.
I do not like the abstract. Some of hangs in places like Boston Fine Arts Museum. Sure it's art to someone but not to me. In that sense yes it is art. However does my desire define "art". no
There is a very large influx of youtubbers that try something for the first time, in whatever it is that they try and then post as though they are an expert. Of those I do not add to my list of art, artist, skilled or expert. That sort of arm chair artist is never in what I consider in my discussions.
An artist in my definition is one that thoughtfully executes an idea in order to achieve a desired result, feeling, thought, expression or paint a picture - in another persons mind.
An artist can be a beginner, expert, skilled, student, apprentice or master.
Art can be expressed via; word, colors, textures, stone, wood, sound, touch or whatever medium the artist decides to use with any tools they desire.
An artist uses any form or strategy to attain the desired result, whether abstract or conventional.
The end result of the artist in to illicit the WOW effect.
WOW - look at what the artist created - wow - that is fantastic.
look at the detail - look at the form - look at - of wow read this etc etc etc.
Love what they have done with that song - story - instrument.
Art is a way!!
Toni - I have had the pleasure of seeing a carving that you did with leaves. I wish you would post it again. I absolutely LOVE that work of art my you - a talented artist. That picture has been in my mind for years, THAT is ART. It is not something new. Leaves have been here for a very long time. The artist created something special with those leaves.
