As I think of love and life, you cannot have the ART of one without the other. To live without love is to merely survive and go through the motions. It is not necessarily love of any one person. It could be loving what you do or sharing your talents with others.

No. The arts of living and loving are basically hedonistic (not that there is anything wrong with that) but both can be perverted by selfishness, separately or together.
Life is filled with pleasure but life is far more than the artistic expression of itself, just as a real experience is far more than any painting, or sculpture, or any other representative copy of that moment.
Love is rooted in pleasure but it there to transcend the pains and ordeals of life (and some believe love even transcends life). The real experience of love is greater than the sum all the arts through out all the ages. That is one reason why the artist again and again tries to find and create the perfect representation of love (and life) and still comes up short.
Art is great but reality is greater and the two have plenty of mutually exclusive territory. Love can flourish in the worst of living conditions and all the finest that life can offer doesn't make a shallow soul a better a lover.

Yes. One first must love oneself, then one can love others, and finally one can live life to its fullest.

kind of, because life is not ALL about loving, but partially it is
