2. Art is not nature

3. Art involves experience

ART IS UNIVERSAL

• Art is everywhere. It deals that an art has no limits and rises above cultures, races and civilizations

• It goes beyond ages. It is boundless, it is not limited to only one community

  Artworks are understood even without using a word. They communicate message only using image and symbols

ART IS NOT NATURE

• Art is man-made which means of utilizing a man skills and artistry

• Art must be man-made, therefore anything that belongs to nature is not an art for there is no human intervention or involvement in its creation. Nature could be aesthetically appealing and if it is not made by man, it cannot be considered as art. Nature can only be a subject of someone's artwork.

ART INVOLVES INVOLVEMENT

• Art is depiction of our experiences

• Art is experiential. Experience is vital in the process of producing art
