Art works because it appeals to certain faculties of the mind. Music depends on details of the auditory system painting and sculpture on the visual system. Poetry and literature depend on language.

Colloquial poetry is to the real art as the barber's wax dummy is to sculpture.

The skull is nature's sculpture.

Music in performance is a type of sculpture. The air in the performance is sculpted into something.

I recently took up ice sculpting. Last night I made an ice cube. This morning I made 12 I was prolific.

My mom is a sculptress.

Painting and sculpture are very archaic forms. It's the only thing left in our industrial society where an individual alone can make something with not just his own hands but brains imagination heart maybe.

No person who is not a great sculptor or painter can be an architect. If he is not a sculptor or painter he can only be a builder.

Somebody informed me recently that the key to every art from writing to gardening to sculpture is creativity. I beg to differ.
