I tried but i couldn't think of any specifically about art in general. I know there are a gazillion poems about specific pieces of art. You might want to look for quotes about art. I think you;ll have more success with that. I also think you should put somewhere in your paper, how closely art and nature are related, because if art is nature, then it is our everyday life. This is most true with prehistoric art , not too much with modern. anyway here is a link of quotes

Paradoxically though it may seem, it is nonetheless true that life imitates art far more than art imitates life.
- Oscar Wilde
An intellectual is a man who says a simple thing in a difficult way; an artist is a man who says a difficult thing in a simple way.
- Charles Bukowski (Notes of a Dirty Old Man)
Added detail:
I agree with LoveLeighe about poems on specific art pieces. The quotes on art abound though.
