I've spent a lot more of my life on what are considered crafts than I have on the so-called Fine Arts.<BR/><BR/>I think the best idea is to do what one enjoys and that is an expression of oneself. Have fun with your pottery and let the rest of us see exaples of it from time to time!Granny Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18214748856516412924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3072025424165524969.post-68341614777500527172009-02-08T03:49:00.000+11:002009-02-08T03:49:00.000+11:00Craft IS art too!rough drafting of artCraft IS art too!<BR/><BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://firmlyrooted.blogspot.com/2009/02/rough-drafting-of-art.html" REL="nofollow">rough drafting of art</A>gautami tripathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192356825699543613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3072025424165524969.post-12686191826520578252009-02-08T03:09:00.000+11:002009-02-08T03:09:00.000+11:00That chook is wonderful!

But is it art? <BR/> I wish I could say no, but if we take art as a reflection of society, then it sadly is - we are becoming a society in concept only, speaking thru symbol, and everything is getting an air of non-permanence.<BR/> Even the shock factor in art is a reflection of the madness behind many elements in society. We should look at this art and ask: what are we doing to ourselves?anthonynorthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06680944720744601697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3072025424165524969.post-59179336853501987082009-02-07T19:49:00.000+11:002009-02-07T19:49:00.000+11:00oh & by the way..
