What is Art & Who is an Artist

entry picture

Art reflects life

In good times and in strife

We put it out there on display

Each story told in its own way

Dreams, beliefs and emotions

Poems and paintings of the oceans

Music, sculpture, macramé

Things we feel we must portray

 

Some create to make a statement

Others 'art' for beauty

Some can't help it, it just is

While some feel it's their duty

 

Everyone has different tastes

And different points of view

That's what makes us all unique

You

     And You

                 AND YOU

David
I wholeheartedly agree. Being an artist can indeed be lonely.
The struggles are real for many of us. Art is a way to express our inner fears and desires. Our loves and our hates. A way to conquer our emotions and a way to connect. A way to be one with ourselves and a whole with the world.
Please keep on creating.
Lisa

" who is an artist " who is to judge?

( respectfully )

not you or you or YOU.

A poetic summary which includes us all. I am "others art for beauty".
A good poem and thank you for it.
