What Is Art?
Art is a very difficult term to define because it can have different meanings for different people. What is art for some might not necessarily be art for others. It all depends on taste and personal preferences. Personally, I believe that art is finding beauty in the rarest and most unusual places, and present it in a way that is unique to you and to your vision of the world around your. For instance, I love photography and I always have a camera with me when I go out. When I’m out with my girlfriend I’d stop at the most unusual places to take a picture. It can be a dirty alley, an old abandon building, or an old junk car. My girlfriend would always look at me with that are-you-out-of-your-mind look. However, the finish product would always amaze her. To me, that’s art. It’s giving something people would usually skip a different perspective, a different meaning.
