I think of Scott McCloud's definition of art:

"Any activity which does not have the primary purpose of survival or reproduction"

survival or reproduction"

There is an art to both of those.

[Athena Grimm]

Expression. In its ultimate form.

I believe the meaning of life is to create art and share it with others.

 

[TheBat812]

Tracing is the auto-tune of art.

Sure it may make you hit the note, but it in no way is a tool nor does it make you an artist.

Any tool can be used in different ways. Some people DO use auto-tune as an artistic tool and not a crutch (Bon Iver comes to mind, but I'm sure there are countless examples). You're free to your opinion, but it's pretty narrowminded and screams pretentious.

 

[Sundancer]

I think of Scott McCloud's definition of art:

"Any activity which does not have the primary purpose of survival or reproduction"

Well, that discounts recreation.


I first think of paintings, but then my mind remembers all the other formsand instantly associates it with the word " creativity."

Michelangelo's David.
