But then this painting I did years ago using no skill at all, is it art? Or the study in blue? What is that?






Shaun,

Art is only one thing and you touched upon it, the manifestation of imagination. One does not need to necessarily have the physical skill. Take a writer for instance, are the hands necessary?

I'd call your study in red art because it created an interest and emotion when I look at it. And no, it's not hate or distaste, lol.
