I define art as something that creates a feeling, whether it be a painting, drawing, poem, music, ect. I know that may not be the real definition but when I look at a picture or listen to a song that may not necessarily be famous or from someone famous I still feel like its art.

Why I decided to pick this piece is because how I feel about flowers. whether its a picture, me walking, driving or in a office looking at a vase of flowers I see the art in them. depending on the flower, color and state its in I get a different feeling or a story that doesn’t necessarily have to do with flowers come to mind.
What I’ve learned from the course content is art is created only by humans. Its not restricted to language only. its opinionated and never really right or wrong how someone views a piece. I also learned that it’s connected to everyday living without being realized by most. As well as that it is made of something ordinary being transformed to something more complex.
I see some similarities in what I consider art and what the qualifiers consider. they too also agree with art being something that creates feeling. I may consider something’s art that they don’t since what I see as art may not always necessarily have an intent.
Beauty does not play a huge role in what I consider art. Although beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I can read or a see a dark piece and not think its beautiful but see the art in it based on how it was expressed and how it manifested what it was trying to express.
