what is art? this question has been around since humans first identified mark making as "art". they probably argued "what is art?" at that exact moment, too! we can appreciate the process in creating art (sculptures, music, paintings, etc) but not like the final product presented to us. i may not really listen to certain styles of music yet i know that that musician must compose the words, practice a melody thousands of times, and finally, record to a level of satisfaction. that is a lot of hard work, stress, and effort. it’s the same with art. i’ve put much effort in creating certain art pieces only to listen to some people "just not liking it". i have come to terms of accepting this as an exhibiting artist just as all other styles of artists.
