As an artist, I can attest to your point of view. I don't see "liberal" arts as an art form at all. The moment in which knowledge and craftsmanship are removed from painting, things are just another form of "wishful" thinking. One of my teachers had a very nice comment on our "modern" artistic endeavors: It's good, but what is it really? My choice for artistic expression is focused on traditional painting. I study the old masters techniques and have no doubt in my mind, that people will rediscover classical arts in a big way in the next decade.
