The
Definition of “What is Art”
1a.
Art is the endless and adverse possibilities of your imagination. The colors
used, the shapes imagined, the attitude perceived, the beauty desired, and the
roughness portrayed all help a person see what is art and was is art to
themselves. Walking down a street or looking in the mirror, art surrounds us
everyday. The colors in the sky, the trees and the flowers around us as we walk
down a path or in the backyard of your home portray art and the emotional
feelings they stand for. From the food I make at Dunkin Donuts and the models
of stairs and homes I construct from balsa wood, I am always creating art; a
piece of my personality in every aspect of my life. Art to me is the precision
and ability to understand how to make a delicious sandwich or cut two pieces of
wood so perfectly that their ends come together almost effortless. I see art as
I see the world, vast and limitless. From colors that I can use in a painting
to the way I organize the plants in my home garden, art and its limitless
possibilities is a beautiful way in which I can display my personality to
others.
