WHAT IS ART?

When I asked for the class to suggest topics for the blog, one of the topics mentioned a few times was art.  What comes to mind when you think of art?  Paintings?  Sculptures?  Drawings?  Sure, all of them are forms of art, but there is a lot more.  Then there are some forms which people don't agree as a form of art.  I'm talking about graffiti.  Many people see it as a form of vandalism.  What do you think?  What is art for you?

Here's a website that I found once while surfing on the web.  I think the guy is awesome!  Go to the website and click on his works of art.  Some of them have a video to show you how it was done.  Enjoy!
