If I go to a museum, and see a ton of paintings, how do I know which ones are better? I mean, I realize they all take skill to do, but if I just eye-ball it, none of them looking amazing, if you know what I mean.
If how-close-it-is-to-real-life is a determinant, then there are some REALLY good ones are out there. If it's I-don't-get-it-what's-it-mean-so-many-colors.... etc. Like my artist friend would go "OMG THAT'S SO PRO!!!!" and I'm staring at it thinking it looks just like every other painting. |

It's art that makes me happy, basically, or inspires me, or makes me think...
Note the use of 'me.' It's all pretty well subjective. |
