The Sport of Art

CLICK HERE TO BID

What makes art so much less appreciated than sports? Appreciating beauty or the human condition is what art so often speaks to us about. Sports on the other hand is a form of entertainment and a diversion in life. Don't get me wrong. I'm a fan of some sports myself but I get more pleasure by reading about the life of an artist or musician. I get such pleasure from a painting that speaks to me. Like most people, I can sit and soak up a favorite musician over and over again.
People will pay $130 a piece for tickets to the football game or basketball game. Would that they have the appreciation of art to spend as much for a painting that brings a life time of pleasure.
