The Art of Making Art Without Lifting a Finger


 After reading “The Art of Making Art Without A Finger”, I noticed something really interesting in this particular chapter. I noticed that this chapter claimed life is like art.  Personally, I have always had that belief.  For example, when you’re in a conversation with someone, there is an acting element to it.  We often do not realize it, but almost every time we talk to someone, we’re being improv actors.  Improv acting is being quick on your feet in a scene, and that’s how conversations are.  There is more than just being improv actors in everyday life.  When we are walking down the street and notice many surroundings, we are being cinematographers, capturing everything around us that we see.  When we remember something, we are looking back at photographs in our head.  At this very moment, we are being photographers looking at old photographs. Our dreams that we dream are like novels in a story. They have a beginning, middle, and end, with a dash of imagination.  If you look closer, everything in your own life is an art.  We don’t see it, but we feel it.
