Lovely, lovely response

"The Nile" by Jean-Michel Basquiat
To begin, I think that beauty in art is subjective to each individual person. What is beautiful to me may not be so to someone else. The painting to the left, "The Nile" by Jean-Michel Basquiat, in my eyes is beautiful. The lines, the colors, and especially the meaning of the piece truly defines how the piece is beautiful. Beauty is a necessity in art which is often overlooked. Most of the time it is not the visual aspect of the piece that makes it beautiful, it is the meaning.
