Art is truly experienced in the senses of the beholder. The same painting, movie or piece of music can evoke a wide array of emotions in many different people, or even in one person alone. The desire to express ourselves thorough our creativity is a characteristic shared by most people. Letting our imaginations run free to create, manipulate, and incorporate our vision into something that lasts caries deep meaning.

For the purpose of this research, I am focusing on the art of painting. I do not consider myself an artist by any means, but my limitations to create have never hindered my ability to appreciate it. When …show more content…

Like I said before, Art is truly experienced in the senses of the beholder. My best friend hates Impressionism. She prefers Post Modern, she embraces weird. My husband thinks classic muscle cars with bikini girls on them is art. My little brother has tattoo sleeves, and he calls that his art. Whether or not I agree really doesn’t matter, that’s the beauty of it. Art appreciation such a personal thing for every individual, I’m glad there’s a medium for everyone to enjoy.
