Good morning, everyone. Happy new week, and welcome to the hive learner prompt of this week: bad art. I must confess I was surprised by the topic of bad art. I used to hear people use the expression a lot, and every time I hear it, it makes me wonder what form of expression this is. Can someone really express themselves in the form of art?

I mean let think about it when someone sings, dance, writes they are trying to pass a message along trying to show a piece of themselves. And even tho it not perfect does that makes it worthless? I don't think so maybe they are just trying to approach from a different angle.
If we believe that bad art is another way of expressing emotions then such could be said about love, in all its messy and confusing forms. In the old days or rather our gender people who fall in love tends to express their love through poems, rhyme, sings off-key just to show they love that partner or just stare at them with a smile they cant explain.
Love itself is an art not everyone paints it perfectly some express through words others through action and some through silence, there is no right or wrong way to show love just as there is no right or wrong way to create art.
I once read a story of Nicholas Spark. The main character there was a guy called Noah he wasn’t a trained poet or artist but he expressed his love for Allie in every way possible. He wrote her 365 letters one for every day they are apart from each other. Every letter Noah Wrote to her doesn't seems to be polished but were filled with the pain in the heart and hope. Each one of those letters are imperfect master piece of love.
When Allie finally read them she didnt see grammatical errors or misplaced sentences. She saw heart and effort he put into writing even tho it was not perfect. She understood the effort immediately that waht we called Art effort been made Noah doesnt have talent but he needed to be honest and sincere about the love which he had for Allie.
What am i trying to prove here is in today words so many of us are being afraid of not been good enough to the woman of our dream. But not knowing the real beauty lies in the imperfections. The most touching forms of art are the love that don't follow rules you played by the heart not by the rules.
So when the word bad art was being mentioned i cant help of thinking of any other logic than the story of Noah and Allie the letters he wrote to her then. both are fragile fragile attempts to capture what words cant fully hold.
Maybe that the most beautiful maybe that’s of it all that we keep trying, even when we know it’ll never be perfect.
Thanks for reading….
