In my mind art is a necessity. It's something that every home and business should have. Without it, a room is just a square box, devoid of emotion, feeling, and excitement. When you look at one of my paintings you can see the emotion, and love that went into each one. Each piece is personal…

The traditional view of art has changed over time just as most things have. Naturally, the act of perception has differed opinions on what society considers as art. Dance, paintings, photography, drawings, music, literature, and sculpting, are what comes to mind when contemplating the aspects of art. The limitation to defining a word so opinionated leaves out room for self-expression. The traditional ideas of what is considered art should be broadened; granted, although not tangible, art can be seen through ambitions, emotions, and expression through appearances when not limited to the customary definition.…
Art can serve many purposes in life. It can be a hobby or form of therapy and self-expression for the artist themselves. It can be used simply as decoration. Or it can be used to entertain and captivate and audience. However, more importantly, art can be used to convey a message that words cannot.…
Art, defined by Merriam-Webster, is the “conscious use of skill and creative imagination, especially in the production of aesthetic objects, acquired by experience, study or observation”. Such a basic definition for the broad aspects of what art really is and who creates it. Artists, though out time, have defined what art is. They did not define art just by the skill of it though. They defined art in such a way that it related to life, morals and movements, and still does to this day.…
At Indiana University, I feel I can be pushed to reach my potential. I hope to be guided to success and assisted during my times of struggle.

I feel that Indiana University will give me endless opportunities to influence my peers, and also to be influenced myself.…
Is Cave Art Art? Art to me is something that tells a story from your point of view. Its something that you have thought of and brought it to life.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art holds many valuable works of art, one of which is double sided piece. This piece labeled Self-Portrait with a Straw Hat is a beautiful painting of a man wearing a hat and on the other side of this painting is a work of art called Potato Peeler, which is of a woman peeling a potato.

Freedom is having the right to act, speak, or think as one wants, and having absolute freedom in creating art pieces mean that no one or no authority can censor it. Usually, authorities such as the government tend to censor art pieces at which they deem unfit and unsuitable for the public audience. The act of censoring is unfair for the artists, as it may mean that they do not have the freedom of expression through art, defeating the purpose of the artwork due to the removal of the main items of the art piece. Some artworks may even be censored either partially or totally although the artist did not have the intention to send whichever inappropriate message the authority has inferred from the art piece. However, sometimes authorities do have to censor, which some adults may disapprove of.…
Throughout this course I have gained more of an appreciation for artwork and the artists that create them. I have also gained an appreciation for the people that try to define what art is in general or more specifically what makes good art. We have read great thinkers and their philosophies on this, and the fact that even people of such great intelligence can disagree on the subject proves how challenging it can be. By reading the opinions of these great thinkers, and by discussing their thought with our class, I feel I am in a much better place as to define what makes good art myself. I define art as anything created by someone that inspires another to appreciation.…
