The Importance of Art

    I disagree with this statement one hundred percent. Fine Arts is in fact a job in the real world. People also love doing art as a hobby and should be able to do it in school. The education system would be completely corrupt if it didn't even allow students to use their imagination in the classroom. As a matter of fact, I actually use art in the real world more than I do science or social studies!

    People who say "art can't make money" have obviously never heard of Walt Disney or Drake. Walt Disney is of course the founder of the movie company Disney which is probably the most successful and wealthiest company to ever exist. Disney creates amazing artwork to make animated movies and is set to hit nine billion dollars in the box office. Drake is a well known hip hop artist who has made over one hundred-fifty million dollars on his songs. So riddle me this. Since when is art not a part of the work face if some artist have made over billions?

    Also, if the fine arts shouldn't be a part of the work force, then why should sports? Art, music, acting all uses probably more creativity and problem solving than sports do. Why is sports getting all of the financial support from the government but art isn't? Literally everything you buy in the store was created by an artist or designer. They use problem solving and creativity every day and make so much money off of it. The next time you buy a pair of shoes, or a new shirt, remember that an artist made that and is making money from it.
