I believe art is how far your imagination can take you. It can be a sense of release. It is of beauty and expression. Art is about being creative and emotional. Art may be physical, mental, and abstract, it draws opinions, is historical, can be shocking, relaxing, humorous, spiritual, and can be very personal to say the least.
Art is an integral part of our society.
Over the years I've experienced a growing interest in graphic design. Some don't believe it is an art form, but I do. It is communication through art. Graphic design is meant to catch the viewer's attention, maybe even more than other art forms do because that is its main purpose. It is for the viewer even more than the designer.
