Thee Art behind the Text

Typography

Stephanie Burns 2010

What is Art?

Is it the creation of something beautiful?

Is it of a meaning?

Does it consist or lack ideas?

Can U learn it?

Is it a superior skill that you can learn, from observation or study?

Is it born?

Does it represent passion?

Is it whatever you want it to be?

Is it a representation?

Is it a collection of memorys, a way to never forget

Does it have the power to retain or recall past experience (Almost like an electronic memory device)

Is it a story?

Can it be read?
