討論問題的解決方案

Unique Art 獨特的藝術

Most people think that art is just painting or drawing. But there are many other kinds of unique art.

For example, some artists love cold weather. The reason they like the cold is that they make ice sculptures. They take huge blocks of ice and use saws, hammers, and chisels to create sculptures. Of course, when the weather gets warmer, their artwork disappears.

Most people don't think of bed covers as art, but others do. Many people make quilts. These are bed covers. But the quilt makers put many designs on their quilts. The designs can be simple, or they can be very complicated. But no two quilts are ever alike. Quilt making is a popular form of folk art in some places.

In America, Native Americans have many unique forms of art. Some of them paint rocks. Others make tiny sculptures from rocks, wood, or bone. And some Native Americans even use sand to make art! This is called sand painting. It can produce many beautiful pieces of art.


大多數人都認為藝術就是指繪畫或是圖畫,然而,其實還有許多其他類型的獨特藝術。

舉例來說,有些藝術家喜愛寒冷的天氣,如此便能創作冰雕。他們取用大型的冰塊,並以鋸子、鐵鎚與鑿子來創造冰雕。當然,一旦天氣轉暖,他們的藝術品也隨之消失。

多數人不會認為被單是什麼藝術,但對某些人卻不然。許多人製造床單,也就是床罩。這些床單創作者將許多圖案運用在床單上,這些圖案可簡可繁,但幾乎不會重複,在某些地方床罩的創作是一種普遍的民俗藝術。

美國的印第安人擁有許多獨特的藝術,有些人彩繪岩石,有些人利用岩石、木材或是骨頭來製作小型雕刻。有的印第安人甚至會利用沙子來創作藝術!稱之為沙畫,可以創作出許多美麗的作品。
