Taylor Stevenson Sentence response

An artist may perceive the art of others better than his own.

Art is a subjective thing. We all perceive art differently therefore what we think is good and bad are different. This also reflects in what we choose to photograph. Subjects that are common to us (the photographer) may, after awhile, lose its beauty because we have already captured it. How many times can you capture something before its repetitive? After being set in our default ways we may begin to forget why we found interest in the subject anyway and just begin to create mechanical art. Things we have come to know and feel comfortable with photographing. So I feel like when that happens we start to lose respect in our art and gain respect to others because there ideas are considered “fresh” to us.
