A Measure of Artistry

I am no artist. But - as one who can at least appreciate an artist's work, I think I have just discovered one way I shall be judging any kind of artwork hereon: the way it moves me.

I have been aimlessly browsing Facebook tonight (can't sleep) and noticed my cousin's blog and photo sites. I couldn't believe my eyes when I explored his photos! His work is just amazing! So good, the pictures made me want to cry. For no reason at all. Weird. But I guess, that's how quality art should affect a viewer: it overwhelms.
