Hi!

I plan on writing a term paper on what exactly art is. Is it even possible for us to come up with a definition of what art is?

I would appreciate if somebody could make a few points and see could I argue them back. Or if anybody could guide me to some resources : )

Greetings Sandra,

You can find a lot of sources on line for this....

Start by reading this presentation by Chris Witcombe, Sweet Briar College:
What is Art? What is an Artist?
http://www.arthistory.sbc.edu/artart...rtartists.html

You might also want to look into some of the animals that have been trained to paint. Are they artists? There is/was a web site for the elephants. Ruby is probably the most famous - I believe Ruby may have been the first.
