Entertainment is not only what <B>you</B> feel, it's how people in general feel. The young artist thinks only about him/her self and not the greater picture. He/she is more or less answering "<I>what's the difference between watching and creating art and being entertained from your personal experience</I>". <BR/><BR/>IMO. Art is an act produced by an idea, entertainment is a feeling invoked by acts such as art. <BR/><BR/>As the artist creating the art I can be entertained by what I do from several ways of perspective. The entertainment is not a feeling reserved only for the viewer. Entertainment don't have to be bombastic or "ha ha look at the clown", entertainment is capture of thought and stimulation of emotion in a positive and/or rewarding way.<BR/><BR/>On the other hand the idea behind the art can be hidden from the viewer and because of that the art invoke no feelings in the viewer, thus no entertainment.Kadri Luikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10737576663295161881noreply@blogger.com
