What is art? Art is any form of expressing emotions or thoughts or creativity. Most things in my personal opinion can be characterized as art. Art isn't only painting, even though many people characterize it as that. Art can be a beautiful song, a dance, or a clay sculpture. Everyone has their own definition and style of art. Why do artists make art? Some artists make art because they are unsure of any other way to release all the built up feelings inside them. Maybe the artist is grounded or going through a divorce or anything; they release that anger by throwing paint at a canvas. Or if someone is in love then they can make art by doing a portrait of the person they love. Artists make art for many reasons but I mainly think it is to express what they are feeling or thinking about at the moment. What is the point of this class and what do you get out of it? Every kid in the world should have the opportunity to take an art class. For my own personal reasoning, my sister has always been considered the "artsy" kid in the family, but this class helped me realize that I can make beautiful art using different styles and materials; I just needed a good mentor (like Mrs. Sudkamp) to help bring out my artistic side. The point of the class is to be meditative, to help you find yourself and your own personal style. |
