What is art?

What is art? Art to me is a way of expressing one's ideas through image. Whether through photography, sculpture, water or oil paintings or maybe through just plain doodles with pen and pencils, or maybe as I do with coloring. Art is a way of showing and even reflecting one's feelings over a period of time. One learns technique and if viewing the classics on may learn history too. There is also language and music in one's art to, but one has to be open to receive the message that the artist wants the viewer to see and hear. Comment.

    I love coloring and forgot how much I enjoyed it as a child until I began coloring with my four year old grandson. We have such a wonderful time together! Your art reminds me of paper crane animals for some reason. Art is truly a language of its own; thanks for reminding us!

    Art is relaxing and it takes my mind off these panic attacks I am going through which are scary. I love Neuro Art and procreate on my iPad
