Buddhist painting from india, nepal, and tibetthe production of buddhist manuscripts illustrated with images of various buddhist deities and/or scenes from the life of shakyamuni flourished in bihar and bengal (present-day eastern india and bangladesh) under the rule of the pala dynasty (ca. 8th - 12th century). the illustrations of the gods that appear in these manuscripts were based on descriptions found in indian texts intended to the practitioner mentally invoke the form of the deity. these texts provide the artist with the basic schema of the image, detailing what an image should look like, from the posture, gesture, and color of the deity, to the attributes (objects he or she holds that symbolize specific powers or knowledge).similarities among the buddhist paintings in this section, which are from india, nepal, and tibet, stem from a variety of reasons. they include the continuous trade and contact provided by trade route linkages and the tendency of artists working abroad to emulate indian models, but the main reason is due to the fact that the gods' depictions in the art of all three countries are ultimately dependent upon the meditation texts described above. in addition, during the pala period, pilgrims, monks, and students from all over asia, but particularly from nepal and tibet, flocked to the region's prominent religious centers; when they returned home, they took the pala style with them in the form of portable items such as manuscripts and small sculptures.

Graphic design is still art, although it differs highly from the traditional forms of art. when someone is creating a piece of art using technology, it still takes time, effort, and creativity to make something look visually appealing. art itself is defined as "the expression or application of human creative skill and imagination." working on computers and using design programs still require the artist to understand lines, shape, form, value, color, space,  and all of the other elements that traditional artists study. they still need to be able to evoke thoughts and emotions through their piece. art does not have to be physically created for it to count as art. so, i think graphic design should still be considered art.
