Blog Post 1: Check my Art blog then make your first post

First, take a look at my "What is Art?" blog to see what I'm asking you to do.

Basically, you are finding a piece of art (or "non-art") and reflecting on why it is or is not "Art". Make sure you include the piece you're discussing in your blog. If it's a picture, song, or a video, embed it in your blog. If you are reacting to another article, hyperlink to it in your blog post so we can find it.

What should be on my blog by now?
