Ask yourself this: If a photographer takes a picture of the Mona Lisa, is it art? Do you know what creativity is? Creativity in art expression is interpretation and innovation. 1.interpretation You heard of old Art Movements such as gothic, art deco, baroque, romanticism, etc... Those who create arts from one school of art are interpretating the style and ideas of that particular art movement. In our example drawing above, it's photo realism. The artist is trying (and i might add highly succeed) in "interpretating" that form of art expression. He is communicating to us via that art from. Interpretation is not only limited to visual arts. If musicians from a orchestra terrifically played a piece of Mozart, are they any less of a Artist because they didn't compose anything in their life? Dancers who must do a very specific choreography are still performing artists. So why indeed draw something that is photorealism instead of just taking a pic? Why do we have dj's at raves instead of just a computer playing mp3s? Because his set is a audio canvas, the turntables & mixer his brush, and his vynils are his paints. 2.innovation This is the other end of the spectrum of creativity in art expression. Some believe that art is real art only if it is original. But being a original is not just putting pieces of medium that no one have never done before. Innovation needs a idea, a form of thought that can interpretated by its audience. Truly innovating art creates an Art Movement such as Thinkism Art Movement (founded in Montreal). Even establishing a branch off a major art form. I.E. gangsta rap from old school rap. 3.Art I hate abstract expressionism. A painting with 3 colored line on a canvas that ANY of us can do sells for millions cuz it "abstract". Abstract is still Art. Any art form, good or bad, that invokes response from you whether is positive or negative is art. If you make or appreciate art for art' sake, it's artsy fartsy. You don't get it. If you create or admire art by expressing an idea, or feelings, or thoughts, or for aesthetic values then you understand the creativity of art expression. Art, in essence, is simply life. ps; abstract is only good for me to poop on! |

Like the leather jacket, and some parts of the hair... |

| Coolness: 144930 | Well, some artist can be pretty amazing. A lot of people today tend to forget the time and efforts someone can put into a realistic piece of art. |

| Coolness: 182565 | well he is pretty good if that was an actual drawing... kudos to him... but still thats not hard to do |

 Coolness: 92300 | It is art, and was not hard to do, because obviously when you draw somethign like this, you have to be enjoying what you are doing. He probably didn't notice time was passign at all. Also this is a practice sketch, any given artist has a few hundred of these boring pics of objects and faces. The better you can draw the more options you have to put your creativity to good use. If you decide you wanna draw a glass fly with copper wire wings, well how are you gonna show its made of glass and the wings of copper? besides pointing an arrow to it, you obviously cant do that with stick figures. Anyone could draw some abstract hoo-haw and call it art. A red dot is not art, I don't give a shit which way you look at it, and I don't give a shit what it meant to the artist when they made it, it is not art, and never will be, because it took two seconds to make. It is cheap, it is gay. How can you call somethign art when you haven't even put any time into it? what kind of artistic inspiration is infused into that? Even if it really meant a lot to the artist, hwo can they feel anythign towards something that took them 1 second to make? they haven't even had the time yet to be inspired and enter that special place in their minds where art comes from, that peacerful state where everythign flows. It's garbage. Idea are one in a million. I never seen a drawing I couldn't conceive in my mind myself, we can all think of these thigns, we can think of random thigns that mean tnothing and they will still be creative. What counts is how you are able to express those ideas. I enjoy lookign at aret form people who truly enjoy the act of actually drawing. We all have ideas. A movie can have a bomb-ass story and still suck and vice-versa. |

| Coolness: 144930 | I still consider portraits to be art. Capturing the essence of someone on a painting or drawing is as beautiful as a truly creative piece, if you ask me. |

| Coolness: 92300 | it's all good, I read it over and realised it wasn't all that clear. What I meant to say was that I believe this is art because he put a lot of heart into it. You can tell this by looking at it. Art is not necessasily defined by the content of the final product. It's not necessarily what we se with our eyes, when I look at this I don't see a picture at all. I see someone sitting there and drawing this and being completely absorbed by it. Now he looks at it and is proud of it, and it is a peice of himself, whether not the content of the picture itself means anythign to him.
I also added that regardless of whether it is creative or not, creativity is useless if we do not have the means to express it. This is why making excercise drawign like this, is practiced by most any artists. There are many things we would be able to think of but not express if we didn't have the means.. I could give a few examples bnut I already gave one in my last post, so screw it. |
