I Have To Comment On My Classmates Board Question Unit I

As someone who lives in the 21st century, when I think of art I think of how people design their homes, how chefs present their plates, tattoos, make up, as well as traditional art such as painting, sculpting, and drawing. Personally, I am very interested in home decor, tattoos, and make up. Before reviewing the units material I didn’t think of advertisements as art. Thinking about advertisements, they have to have a suitable font, background, images, and even music or dialog if it is an animated advertisement. My perceptions of art changed and has made me realize that even things that don’t look or seem like traditional art or modern art can still be art.
