It's all in the eye of the beholder. Ask your mom if she thinks it's art. I don't know about your mom, but mine saved every scrap after taking it down from months of display on the refrigerator door. It may embarrass me now, but to her at 90, very little is as precious as that "kindergarten" art from her children.

Bob, are you familiar with the phrase, "beating a dead horse"? But I guess your post explains why you sometimes seem strange. You learned all this stuff in kindergarten. I too pasted my crayon drawings on kraft, not kindergarten, paper when I was in kindergarten. They were not art, even if you put them in a thousand dollar frame they were not art.

If you can acquire a piece of (perhaps colored?) cardboard larger than the photo and some buy or make some kindergarten paper, you have a frame. Cost equals much, much less than the photo which (apparently) was afforded!

Once again we have it in writing. Poor people who can not afford frames are not artists.

If you care enough about your photo put it in a frame, then I believe you when you say it's art. If you don't frame it, then, despite all your protests to the contrary, I believe that you are just giving lip service to "artsy" folks in hopes that they will think you "enlightened" and an "intellectual" to be invited into their plastic circle.
