A Response to Denise Question

In her blog, Denise posed the question :
If ideas can be art, then can descriptions of ideas, such as a prose paragraph describing a painting, real or imagined, be art?

I think the answer to this is simply is yes. If not, the descriptive way of poems and  the indulgent ways of philosophical musings would not be considered, in some way, art. We believe the way a good poem ebs and flows and the way the words work together and make us feel the flow and rhythm and meaning of the poem in our hearts, as corny as it sounds, is art. In a way I think they are the same thing in different forms. The descriptive ways of a poem and the philosophical musings are just beautiful paining in word form. Like the poem To Autumn by John Keats is a beautiful and one of the best descriptions of the sights and feelings of autumn or fall, you can feel the slow progression of the death and ending of life in fall, as the summer and the flowers and life slowly winds down. But could this not be a painting like "Autumn's Impression" could give you those same feelings by simply looking at it. Personally, I enjoy a good poem or a well written book to express emotion and feel something. These descriptive paragraphs that could describe a real or imagined painting could mean anything. They could describe the feelings or even the flow or the look of the brush strokes and still it makes us feel or see something that is not physically visible. This is an art from. Being skilled in this way of words just like many lyricists and poets and authors are is an art form. Making someone feeling something or alert a sense that is not present in the art piece is art in itself. What about a description of a book or a poem, would this be considered art? Where does this descriptive way stop?
