When I see a painting or drawing, hear a song, taste a dish, smell a perfume, or touch something, and that experience takes my breath away, THAT is art. Art is the height of achievement, the best a person can do. Throwing bags of garbage on the floor in interesting designs is NOT art. Art has a sense of reverence to it, the feeling that the artist was somehow enraptured by his creation. When you can glimpse the divine essence of a person in his or her creation, that is art.

It is something that is beautiful, inspiring, breathetaking. Things like a beautiful painting (Monet is my fave), or a piece of glass, a sunset, a ballet, my children, the grass glistening with dew.
It is hard to define exactly, because so many things I see on a daily basis to me is art.
The afghan I just finished, the mixed media collage I am working on, or the quilted bag I made 2 weeks ago. Those are all works of art to me. But so is the smile I get from one of my boys when I do something silly.

Makes a statement.
Stirs the emotions.
Traditional.
Abstract.

Art like beauty is in the eye of the beholder, however great art should stir some emotion. A painting of a bowl of fruit is nice but does it get your blood boiling and percolate through your soul.

Art is an expression of the artist. I think everyone is an artist and we all have a different medium. Some people use paint, others fabric, for some it's food. It's the medium we use to express ourselves to the world.

Since I really suck at Art, anything I cannot do is Art to me!

Art is anything that is pleasing to the eye, that relaxes me.

art is an odd sensation that no one can describe or define.
