art has no boundaries

I suppose some people think that it's the little everyday routine things like getting ready, feeding the dog, or waiting for the bus, that can be defined as art.
Since art is incredibly broad and all-encompassing, anything can be interpreted as art.
A thing, a process, a state of mind, whatever. If urinals or blank canvases can be under the "art" category, then why can't brushing one's teeth also be art? When I put makeup on I consider that an artistic process.
And what about Yoko Ono's conceptual art process in which one stands outside and imagines that there are seven suns melting onto the earth while eating a tuna fish sandwich? Is that not art?
Sometimes I see strange shapes from far away which appear as faces, but when I move closer, they revert back to their original form as a cluster of shrubbery or rock formation. Art is everywhere and can be perceived however one likes. Art has no boundaries.
Personally, I think people try too hard to put a label on art when instead they should just let it be. Art is not math or science. There are no right or wrong answers.
