This question has been a topic of discussion for years and there are convincing discussions from both sides of the table. Debates like this should not persist because it only covers up beyond discovery the real meaning and nature of art. Limiting art in a kind of past-time will only degrade the quality of art. In trying to create an art work out of a spare time interest the individual will depend upon an unexpected spark of inspiration. But inspiration doesn't last once the feeling is gone.
The zeal for art goes with it, therefore the unfinished art will finish up not looking like skillful art. In limiting art in a sort of profession it also ends up like limiting the art as a bare job. By career we mean that an artist will create art to earn a living. He or she will paint, compose music and take images as it is demanded of her or him. So, the individual will create art out of bare compliance. If we make art only because we are obliged to, it will not bring out the very best in our creation.
Art is neither a hobby nor profession; art by its nature is a medium to express the emotion and thoughts of an artist. Whether artists get their information from painting lessons or other classes art is an expression of the artist. If artists can unreservedly express their thoughts and emotions not as it is asked of them or because it's just a hobby then their creations can truly be called art work.
If artists get any inducements, as an example if an individual would like to purchase a painting or a musical composition then this is only an added bonus to their work. It is a sort of indicator that what they did is extremely good and worth the people's money and time. Art should not be limited into a trifling spare time pursuit or profession.
Art should be preserved as a technique of conveying the feelings and thoughts of an artist because this is the real meaning and nature of art.
