Art Is Relative Isn't It?

Name: Lee

Comments: If it is relative why do people judge something they see as good or bad if it is really just their point of view?

It Isnt Relative Art

Depends.
There are several "main" rules in every branch that you must never brake. But many other things are open for discussion. Beauty is in eye of beholder, but your work has to have the quality... Keep working and improving, ask many people for different opinions and critique and u will get better in time.
You will often see famous artists doing some crazy and extraordinary stuff that in my [opinion] are rather ugly but they can afford that at their point in career. We have to grind our way up to get there though.

p.s. Don't take any critique personal. Everything matters you just have to have a thick skin.

Lee, that's because in art there are techniques that must be followed otherwise everyone does whatever they please and they expect to make it as a masterpiece even though it may be trash.

It Isnt Relative Art

Instead of looking at an art object and asking, "Is this good?", maybe it would more useful to ask, "Does this make me feel something?"

It Isnt Relative Art

"Feeling something" Can be both relative and subjective too because the feelings you get from art could be based on mood, past history, how your brain is wired, preconceptions and a whole bunch of things.
