The arts represent an outlet of expression. They are usually influenced by tradition and culture and it turns to help to change culture. As such, the arts are a physical manifestation of the internal creative impulse. Major constituents of the arts include literature, poetry, novels, short stories, and epics; performing arts such as music, dance, and theatre; culinary arts such as baking, chocolatiering, and winemaking; media arts like photography and cinematography; and visual arts, including drawing, painting, ceramics, and sculpting. Some art forms combine a visual element with performance (e.g. film) and the written word (e.g. comics).[1]

We can also say that art is present in everything we do. Even a homeowner decorating a house or a chef plating food on a plate and garnishing can be considered artists. We can see that art is everywhere and all times. Writing, reading, sleeping, even eating apply. Everything comes under art.
