What Is Art?

Art is something that can be difficult to define due to all the things that people can make of it. Art can be on a piece of paper, on a canvas, auditory, a visual performance etc. It is difficult to put it in a box and claim that there is only one thing that it can be. When someone wants to express themselves through art, it is common for people to say that they don’t know how to draw or paint therefore rendering them unable to do so. However, cutting oneself short and believing that painting and drawing is the only form of art is just unfair. Art can be art if it has meaning to at least one person, even if that person is just the artist. Art is art if it is simply a beautiful landscape or a beautiful person. Art also doesn’t need to appeal to everyone, and it also doesn’t have to be beautiful.
