Art vs. Design

This article makes a good point about how art is something new and creative compared to some "art" which is based on the design of previous artists. Art is something that a person should feel from within which then comes out into their work. Design is just doing art using other peoples style so it is not really coming from within yourself but others. Unlike artists who can do whatever they want without have to rely on others, design you cannot really steer too far from the "instructions" of past art.
