The word "ART" is very subjective. I suppose what really makes something art is if someone likes it, and that may only be the artist in some cases. If one derives a sence of satisfaction in making a picture, that in and of itself is enough to justify it's existance. What people need to do is have respect for others work even if it's not their cup of tea. I don't know how anyone can denegrate Catharina Przezak, what she does often can't be diferentiated from a photo of a real human being; not to mention the fact is that it takes real talent to create the beautiful texture maps she does. Perhaps its like my momma always said if someone is overly critical perhaps they are indeed only jealous. . .
