The Arts People’s life can’t be imagined without arts. They are not only entertainment for us‚ but also the way of expressing our thoughts and exchanging them through time and space. As the thoughts are often different‚ the art is so varied. So every nation has its own art with specific features. I wish to speak about British arts.

In “Willy Covari (Brazzaville)” photographer Daniele Tamagni shows a very interesting character in the streets on Brazzaville‚ the capitol city of the Republic of the Congo.

The reason I chose these two specifically is because they both involved a man and a woman‚ making it more interesting

The Art of Living As everyone knows‚ ink is something that can never be undone. It is something permanent and is very difficult to cover up or remove. It can be in a form as simple as a pen caressing a piece of paper or as complex as a needle drenched in ink‚ piercing through skin to form a different kind of art‚ known as a tattoo. As times are changing‚ tattoos seem to be getting a lot more common in my generation compared to previous ones. As tattoos become more popular‚ so do the criticisms.
