What is art?

Art, in my opinion, is a way of expressing ones self whether through painting,
sculptures or even dance because art has many forms. Creating and making art is at the
core of everyones life. Beyond doubt, all of us began painting and drawing even when
we were a child. It is the representation of our individuality or the reflection of what we
are going through or been through, and we never stop making or performing art until we
die. We express either happy and sad feelings through art, or even other feelings that are
difficult to overcome. We are not just aware of it but art is in our everydays lifestyle.
There is art in your favorite pictures in your colorful picture frames, the cute flower
designs of your curtain, your favorite computer game with cool graphics, the graffiti on
the walls in the street that you will always look into, and the music video that you
consistently replay on your cell phone as well. Art is even verified to stir up certain parts
of our brains that make our emotion change like giggle, cry, and the like. Therefore I
believe that art actually creates a connection between people that makes them into
something greater than their parts. I would say that it makes us human, that is,
everyone of us are artists, knowingly or unknowingly.
One cannot really define art as it is. Art is very subjective and broad. It is
something different to each and every one of us. The definition of art is in the eyes of the
beholder. You should dig deep into it and feel its importance in our daily life.
