What do you get out of art?
11 years ago
Just a general, open-ended question. Whether you just like to look at it or you make it yourself, what do you get out of visual art?
Is making art something fun to do, or some compelling drive that's never quite fulfilled?
Do you look at it because it perhaps makes you smile for a moment, or do you see something else in it?
I have my own answers, but they've been fairly muddied by a deep sense of shame and inadequacy that I developed going through art school. I'm curious where others stand.
