I also don't think art = realism. Picasso moved from realism to abstract crations that weren't realistic at all. But they make you think, even if you don't like them. Artists have a unique style. You can tell one artist from another when you are dealing with real art. In the Poser gallery, most of us are pretty lookng pretty much the same (and bless be to the people who don't...you make the gallery interesting). But I do agree with Ronstuff. Everything doesn't have to be art, nor should it be. There's room for a lot of graphic expression that got nothing to do with art. And it's not a less than situation...it's a choice.
