Visiting art galleries may not be your thing, but thanks to social media, you need not visit the Louvre or Smithsonian to savour the aesthetically pleasing, thought provoking or plain admirable works of art.
Art can be created on a canvas, a wall, a body or with a lump of clay for that matter! An artist is one who can make others see the extraordinary in the ordinary.
