Lizette: What is Art?

To me, art is a broad category for things that humans produce. I think art has a few requirements. First of all, it should be a work of inspiration. There has to be reason and intent behind it. Inspiration gives art its meaning and allows other individuals to analyze it within its context. Art should also provoke some thought or reactions. This, in most cases, forces a dialogue to occur and is perhaps the biggest contribution that art can give.

I also happen to think this is art:
