Beauty vs. Replusion

A. I think good art have a good subject that can be shared with people to discuss about. technically, they should have a great skill and emotional expression which the artist want to convey to people. http://www.mdwoodward.com/ This is the example of good art. I think his artwork is great. Firstly, I thought his expression of emptiness and darkness which hides in the object is great. that attracts me a lot. the dynamic objects could be Expressionism.

It is hard to say clearly what bad art is. I can not say "I do not like that, so it is bad art." It is important to judge work of art without own biased judgment. I think one of my definition of bad art is that subject is unclear and they are not fascinated. I think beauty is the highest visual pleasure. Then, I think it's bad art if the object makes viewer focus on too much for it. I can not explain it well, but here is my explain site http://www.akiramania.com/shodo/shodo03.html. He used his blood and puke for calligraphy. it looks interesting but it is hard to understand the subject and what the relation among the object and calligraphy and the words that he wrote.



B. Honorific art is defined as essential aspects of artwork. they are a living concept and have historical aspects in it.



C. There is a subject in any artwork, even they are good or not. Subject is essential aspects when you define classificatory definition of art.


D. Sorry, I have no idea about that.


E. I picked Madeleine Hope Arthurs. marthurs.com
This time, I am expressing beauty and replusion using animals. I really like her decorative art. I have drawn animals only a couple of times. I tried to catch the animal's characteristic.
When I think about what the difference between beauty and replusion is, I felt beauty is replusion. All we have a different interpretation about beauty and replusion. For me, beauty is one of the object or notion that fascinate me and there is a process to be beauty for anything. For example, it is simple to understand beauty compared to a newborn baby. A newborn baby is beauty for me. However, a grand-grand mother's face is more beauty for me because she have a lot of experiences in her entire life, and that makes her beauty. That is the process to be beauty. In her process, she may be replusion sometime. The process that guides you beauty or replusion is important. So, I used butterflies for that.




Sorry, I messed up. I could not put together my thoughts well.
