What is art? Everybody has different opinions on it. Some say it is sketching. Others say it is painting. A few more say that it is clay work.
People disagree on whether or not art should last forever and never age, always be there to inspire and admire or whether or not is should be fleeting and last only an instant so that people have to appreciate its beauty while they can.
Personally I say why cant it be all these things and more.
To me art is what you make it.
It could be the music that you write or play. It could be the drawing that you make, the painting that you create or the clay pot you sculpt.
It could be the monument you build, which will last through the generations, always there to inspire. That will stand there so tall that people cannot help but stare and marvel at the craftsmanship.
It could be the drawing done on the sidewalk that you just can’t help but admire. The drawings that are done in chalk and that will only be there for a short amount of time before the next rain comes or until someone comes to clean it off.
You are the one who decides what is. You are the one who decides whether art lasts forever or is brief.
You are the artist. You are the poet who writes the stories, you are the musician who plays and writes the music, you are the one who makes the pots, and you are the one who builds the buildings or does the chalk drawings on the streets.
Who is to decide what art is but you, the artist?

I think I've been listening to my teachers argue about what art is for too long...

I consider myself an artist not because I can draw, but because I write, and I can't tell you how many people want to argue this case. I like this and I'm glad to have read it.
