Group Definitions

Group 1:  Lucas,  Dominique, Madison,  Selena

Art is an expression of emotion, it is a dimension of the mind. Art is one of a kind, it can be painted or drawn perfectly at once. It  evokes  an emotional response and causes self reflection and thought! The possibilities are endless! 

Group 2: Analieze, Brandon W, Nathan, Desmond

Art is any image, scripture, form or other manner that stimulates an emotional response in effect.

Group 3: Marisa, Kimmy, Darian, sarah, Brandon D

Art is an expression of one’s emotions, regardless of medium or viewer opinion.  

Group 4: Bianca, Israel, Parker

Art is expressing yourself through creativity and individuality. Everyone is an artist and every person is a piece of art because you are an expression of your own creativity. There is no right or wrong in art. Everything is art and you can express it anyway you like. If is the physical representation of a mental concept.
