    I always wondered when people's work begins to be classified as art. As an artist myself, I thought to myself, well, what makes what I'm doing art and does that make me an artist or something other than that?

    I personally think art is each persons own prospective of what they perceive art to be. Art is many different mediums weather it's paint on canvas , beaded jewelry, or photography. Each and every person defines art differently.

    Art is born from deep within. The ability to dive deep into your intuition, to draw out an expression whose origin lies beyond the vivid consciousness of this physical world. Art is expressed in different forms. It could be music, it could a painting, a drawing, even a prose but whatever form it might carry, it must possess the profound presence of intuitive perception. So for me, any work of expression that carries a quality educed from deep within is a work of art.

    When an artist begins expressing themselves. Most usually imitate what UI changes I consider a bad practice. An artist needs to leave an imprint of themselves in every work of art.

    I think art starts being art as soon as someone recognizes it as such. Be it the artist or the viewer. Whoever can see the beauty in it, whoever is inspired by something; has thus made it so. You can see art in nature. A cloud can be art as soon as someone recognizes it so.

    I believe that art is inherent to all things. When a thing stirs up something deep within us, we can say that we let the art of the thing emerge to its surface. So, art starts being art when someone has successfully allowed a thing to express itself inside us.

    However, as an artist, you have the responsibility of respecting human customs (even if you want to change them, the history of how humans make art needs to be studied and understood). Your work can be separated in whether your focus is to make your work emotionally powerful or aesthetically beautiful.
