It's a new batch of "White Lightening." What else could it be for silly's sake?
I apologize if my "art" is not "real."
Otherwise, please piss up an old goldline.

The great debate of what is real art:-) Many believe landscape paintings aren't art, that they are decorations with no artistic merit, because they lack meaning. I disagree with this thought and with Tiki's too. Photography is art, photomanipulation is art, at least in my view, but some people disagree. Art is the expression of one's self (or thoughts) through their meduim of choice.
Tiki, Tollhouse isn't in season, how about some Shuteye?

TJI.....turning a photo RED is considered ART?
Cosmic's photomanipulation is art and that kind has a long standing tradition here on the Stand.
So Mouse....should I piss up your Goldline or mine?
I was being facetious BTW....lighten up!

Yeah tiki some may consider it art. Definitely not a strong piece in my mind, extreme minimalist:-) But I do consider photograpy art and it is a photo. Lucky I am no art critic though, because then I'd love paintings of Campbell soup cans and Marilyn Monroe painted over and over in different colors.

Did I or anyone else ever throw in this crosslink to another relevant discussion here on ST?

Yeah TJI, I can't imagine anything much more excruciating than being an art critic.
Ger - go climbing SOON! According to Warhol's definition, climbing is most definitely ART.

Missed that the first time Nate, but some good discussion in there. Funny you presented Duchamp, cause I was thinking of his toilets too.
And Climbing is performance art.

Oh. I'm very sorry about that, if it's the case. I have only gotten to the point in my computer edumacation that I just didn't think of it as "old hat, done that."
I have thought this over enough to say what I think. It is tough to be original in anything. Time, effort, cost of materials all go into art. Some art is less exhausting in these respects than others. There is a Cain and Abel effect among art guys who work, work, work, and art guys who simply need to go click, click, click, apparently.
Take that away and discuss it. I'd just like to see more art, by whatever definition.
