This belief is silly because every individual has a talent. We are skillful in everything we do that ends with a good purpose. This ability allows us to claim that we are artists in our own right, depending on our preferences and abilities that determine our specific interest in art. 5 The belief that art is only good for the rich and famous is the second misconception. There is no bifurcation of art according to status. God created human beings with equal number of neurons, capable of rationalization compared to other creation in the animal kingdom. The human brain is capable to think 5,000 thoughts per day (Laboria, 2013), including thinking of the art. We are all gifted with art. The problem is when we fail to recognize it and the lethargy that dictates us not to do it, because we want everything easy and instant given to us in a silver platter. We need exposure to hone our imagination to its maximum potential. 6  DIFFERENT T YP ES OF ART FORMS Sculpture is the branch of the visual arts that operates in three dimensions.
