Carlsbad Art and Culture

What visual elements are your eyes drawn to? The wall or rail, the pole or sea gazers, the animated sea or the blue sky? Are you drawn to familiar icons like Andy Warhol, structures, direction of lines like De Chirico or emotional colors Like Van Gogh. Maybe its all abstract and each element is no more than a geometric shape Like Picasso and Cezanne. Are your thoughts persuaded by symbolism Like Dali? Are you more interested in art because you call it art rather than because you made it like Duchamp? Does light play a major role like Monet and other impressionists? What about music similar to Kandinsky? Do your eyes find the flaws also seen in paintings of
Manet? Do you feel personal pain like Frida or is it all up to chance like
Arp? Are your wildest desires stirred like Lautrec or do you pick colors straight from a scientific theory like Seurat. Some may be a magnet to the Tahitian primitive lifestyle like
Gauguin and others may just see random splatters like
Pollock!

No matter what draws you eyes, you are the artist as well as the viewer. Your mind is like a fingerprint independently unique and your eye is like a tongue, able to differentiate your artistic tastes. Make and enjoy art for yourself because you are the most important critic.
