noun
noun: art; plural noun: arts; plural noun: the arts
"We Three"
  1. 1.
    the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power.
Oh yeah.  Really.

Does that mean that art is only art if it is considered beautiful?  What others consider pretty?  A literal copy of God’s world?  The more realistic the better?  What about matching the couch?  And when does art become the pursuit of money, turning artists into hurried successful prostitutes?  Knock it out and get paid.  


Don't think so.  

Art is truth.  Art is a lie.  Art is personal.  If one can breathe a soul into something then that one is an artist.  Because art must live.
