Contemplating Art - What Makes Art?

There are many different types of art:
  • Literary Arts involve the written word.
  • Visual Arts- usually for the eyes only painting, photography, drawing, sculpting and so on.
  • Performing Arts - music, theatre

What are your thoughts on what is or isn't art?

I would love to hear your opinions,
