Art? Should it have a motive; a meaning? Or should it simply stand for itself; for beauty alone?
In any from, preferably prose. Tell me what you think on this issue. I have recently changed my opinion on the matter, almost entirely by accident in fact.

The Artist
Art... motive, meaning, beauty? Why can’t it be all! If a person paints, sculpts, photgraphs, designs, dances, writes... they are expressing what they like, love, think, know, unlike, hate, feel... in the moment. There is sometimes planning, sometimes it’s impromptu. Either way, they are articulating how they believe, what they like, how they feel. Getting it out of their mind, in a way they choose, a way they enjoy. Everyone has a bit of artistry in them. They just need to find their medium of expression and having the desire to create, produce, give, construct. They then can share, protect, preserve, hide their works away, whatever they want, it’s up to them.
