When we view pictures everyone sees different aspects of the pictures and artist have different expressions when making the pictures. Some people decide to criticize pictures for not being good enough or for being fake. Some people blame this on ideologies and say they shape the way a work of art is viewed.
Some people think the people follow the artist like zombies.
People receive from a painting what they are taught to by they experiences they have when growing through the years. Paintings have to stand to a higher degree of criticism than other forms of work. The form a of art that competes with paintings the most are pictures show exactly how things are and paintings are left up to the artist to distort. When an artist paints or takes a picture the picture does not end where the edges of the paper are the paintings wants to continue. This continuance shows the uncertainty of the painting we see that something is missing.
