This is what I would call a clear definition of art. This painting was done entirely with lipstick, not paint. The use of lipstick is ironic because Angelina Jolie has coveted lips. The main reason I would call this a definition of art is because it uses an unusual medium and technique, where traditional “technique” is irrelevant in the idea or emotion conveyed. What better way to capture Angelina Jolie’s lips than to paint with lipstick? The making of this piece can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-dRZ3TJbok&feature=channel.

I just thought this was kind of cool how they used lipstick to paint Angelina Jolie and the irony behind it because her lips are so well known.
