troubles, the tough school work and everything that may stress myself. I feel

ACTIVITY 2:
Answer the Following question in your own words as precisely
yet as thoroughly as possible.
1. If you were an artist, what kind of artist would you be?
I would like to be an abstract artist and create huge abstract paintings. I think
this is the easiest form of art and also the most meaningful. Just like nature does
when she created our world.
Creating is easy, but then you have to decide what you want to keep. If you
create something and then destroy it piece by piece you can create art.
Agelessness and timelessness can refer to a classical form of art that will never
go out of style, in the sense that it does not employ any fads that will only be
popular for a limited time. Art is timeless because it brings people of all
generations, ages, ethnicities, and backgrounds together. Art is ageless because
it has deep and complicated aspects.
4.Why does art involve experience?
Art includes the artist's experience in striving to capture something he has seen
or felt, as well as the viewer's experience in sharing what the artist is attempting
to portray. By its very nature, any manifestation of oneself is founded on one's
experiences. One's life experiences shape who they are: their beliefs, feelings,
lifestyle, and everything else. When they create art, a small portion of that is
shown (whether consciously or subconsciously). You get a look inside their
minds and the events that shaped them into the people they are now.
