In today's world, art is one of the biggest topics, and it has a wide range of meanings and definitions. From Oxford's definition of art - "the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form such as painting or sculpture, producing works to be appreciated primarily for their beauty or emotional power" - to James Baldwin, who is a philosopher on the subject of art, stating that "the purpose of Art is to lay bare the questions that have been concealed by the answers." Both interpretations are fully true, and so can any definition. This is because art is specific to each individual, causing there to be no one universal definition of art and creating an abundance of meaning and definition of the topic.
Today, my goal is to explore different types of art forms, deepen my understanding of them, and finally find the meaning of art to me. Furthermore, I will have a period of one year to explore 5 different art styles - Pencil Sketch, Oil Pastels, Watercolours, Acrylics, and Colour Pencils.
