When do you call it Art?

  In my opinion:

There are no rules in art  . . .  Yet still one tends to keep on thinking inside a box. 

For example, to me a photographer creates “paintings”. The only difference with a regular painting is the “how” and the “tool”. He uses  a camera instead of a brush. And, it’s the man behind the camera that decides to creates his painting by selecting where to zoom and choosing a specific part or detail of an object to be sharp.

Same go’s for a design that’s been made on a  computer. Even if it is or seems easier,  the results to me are the same. You like it or don't.

Let's look from another perspective: If you enter a room and notice a beautiful  “peace of art” hanging on the wall,  does it matter if it’s made on a canvas with a brush of created by the computer mouse and then printed?

Does it matter if making a painting is more difficult? Even so, to make special drawings on the computer, one also has to know how to use a drawing program or you won’t be able to create what’s in your vision.
