Art is subjective. People will argue what qualifies and what doesn't, but the power and motivation to create reveals itself in various ways. What comes from that inspiration is a reflection of a creative impulse, a drive for expression. Not all art has to be classical figures or subjects.
Take Jackson Pollock for example. He painted in a highly eccentric way producing works much different than Leonardo or Monet. To me, his work is still art.
What do you see?
This last one always reminded me of a surfer with a board tucked under his arm.
So what do you think? Is it art? Why?

The surfer dude looks pretty rad, but the other stuff looks like I'm having an acid trip. Cool, but idk...
ReplyDeleteWell Spectre, I'm betting you're not the first person to make that kind of connection. Not sure if Pollock himself was on acid or not but they are a mind blow.
DeleteYou both are right. As I consider myself as an artist as well, i do oil painting, charcoal, pencil or combine art, i quiet like and respect Jackson Pollock as he came up with another dimension of early modern art in that time.
Deletethanks for sharing anyway
Miro, I've always liked Pollock's work because to me, it always seemed innovative and free-form. It provides a launching point for my imagination to go where it will.
DeleteI like this,because painting is like a stream flowing out of mind ,it has a poetic view also.so we cannot say one painting good as compared to other,because each of them represent each kind of beauty..thanks for posting
