Art

I feel that Art in the form of pictures and paintings are something that is kind of a waste of time.  I am not a very creative person.  I mean some paintings and works of art can look good and be interesting, but it is not something that I feel you can deeper meaning out of.  The things that are there are the things that are there.  There are not any alternate meanings or anything along the lines.  I don't understand how people can think there are alternate meanings behind a work of art.  I feel that there is not any real reason behind it.  Like, it may be interesting, but nothing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on.  One form of art work that I can be very interesting is poetry.  I can not write poetry for my life, but I found a lot of the poetry at Casa's Poetry Slam very interesting.  It is a great way to express your feelings.  I think though that only good poetry is interesting.  Not every poem is going to be good as the others, and I feel that those are the ones that are worth time.  But. my all time favorite work of art is watching Roy Halladay pitch to Carlos Ruiz.  It is weird to think of an athletic performance as a work of art, but the way that Roy Halladay does, makes it very clear.  The sequencing and pitch selection that CArlos Ruiz orchestrates is astonishing.  Especially during his no hitters and perfect game.  The canvas is the diamond, Ruiz is the painter (not Halladay) and the pitches are the work of art.  YOu may be wondering why Ruiz, the catcher, is the painter and not Halladay the pitcher.  Carlos Ruiz picks everything out, which pitch to throw and where to throw it.  Without Ruiz, Halladay is still a good pitcher but not at the level he is at now.  In my eyes carlos Ruiz is one of the greatest painters of all time.  He paints a great game every game regardless of who is on the mound.  It is very impressive how he can change so much depending on who is on the mound.  His canvasses almost always come out beautifully.
