Just an update...on art

Well it's been a couple of weeks now since I have studied about art, embraced it's beauty with both arms. Today feel like reflecting on it all, what I've learned so far in this mysterious yet intriguing art world. Well I guess to start if off is art is something that of a feeling, inspiration, an idea, a controversy, or to sum it all up an intention. Of course, there is always dadaism which, at one point, tried to make anti-art(you can look in my other blogs to know more about it) but failed. When the intention is created the color is needed in the process of making the art. Color is one part of showing the intention, for example having and dirty red could mean anger or rage to the point of arrogance or have a purplish blue to have sort of a relaxing feeling when you look at it. The color is the most important of all the aspects and without it, it really wouldn't be art at all. Then comes the type of art that you do, it could be abstract, Surrealism, Romanticism, Cubism, etc. This part of the art is one where you have almost little or no choice because these types of art express 1 or 2 main idea's and most likely your intention will fall into one of these types. When you have all these mixed together it makes art or at least my perspective of art. Of course one could say that art is only meant for beauty, or an expression of feelings, but really art is what you make it to be and no one else can change that.
