the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination, typically in a visual form
art is important because it is a way to express emotions and messages through a visual presentation
visual forms of presentation are generally most easy to understand because it involves the sense of ‘sight’

pink colors that the cherry blossoms emit
cherry blossoms are present in many ‘utopian’ paintings in Japan

way”.
