All art is quite useless - oscar wilde

That quote is pretty true, when you think about it. Art is a luxury, after all. All you can do with art is scrutinize it, and decide whether you love it, hate it or have neutral feelings for it. Art isn't a necessity, therefore some people do not have the right to appreciate it.

Because I am pretty well off, well fed and all that, I do have the right to appreciate art. But it's useless. It can't make me toast or tea whenever I want. But art is nice, to put it simply. I really like makeup at the minute. I think that is a type of art, really. The face is like a canvas. Sometimes it isn't smooth, or right to paint on. Or maybe it's not even the right colour. So you've got to prime it, to make it smooth or to get rid of those unwanted pigments. Then you put down the base layer. And like painting you layer until you get that perfect, smooth colour you wanted.

There are so many things you can do with makeup. You can contort a person's expression, make them look like they've just been shot or make them look so eccentric that people mistake them for Lady Gaga.

Honestly, I love painting, and I really wish I had more faces to practice applying makeup on. With paint, you can buy canvas or paper. With makeup, you can't buy faces. However, both forms of art can make people so happy.

I think that's what I want to do with my life. When I'm older, and not so naive and self centered, I want to make people happy. Because honestly, how can someone be truly happy in a world full of miserable souls?
