We need to support artists because they play a great role in developing a nation by their works
TURBAT: Art is not what you see but what you make the others see. It is something beautiful made by a person. People create art for many reasons. They may want to tell us a story or record details of an event, person or place. Sometimes, they create things because they enjoy doing it. Art can be seen in paintings, music and jewelry. Art is as old as man and has been transferred from generation to generation. There are paintings 15,000 years old. Leonardo Da Vinci has been one of the most famous artists of the world. Even today, his works are considered masterpieces. Art has big importance in everyone’s life, which represents the culture of a nation. We need to support artists because they play a great role in developing a nation by their works.
