"Art is being creative and letting your mind flow. It's your ability to make mistakes and fix them. Art is how the world came to be, it's how buildings were constructed, and how previous stories were told. Art is fashionable, it's how a person expresses themselves, it's the way we spend our time when bored. Art is the way we plate food, the way we decorate our homes and rooms. Art is music, it can be vibrant and expressive. Art is all around us, it's how we grew up, it's art."

"Art is a way to express myself and to describe what I'm feeling without words. It could show happiness, sadness, and all other feelings, and maybe the people who look at my art can feel those things, too. It's a good way to connect everyone around the world. It doesn't matter if we have the same language or religion. Art is a way to bring us all together."
