In order to send a photo in a text message from your cell phone to your cousin's cell phone who lives in New Zealand, is it necessary to establish a single direct connection between the two devices?

No, because all you need is WiFi for both devices and a messaging app to do it for free like iMessage.

Explanation: Please correct me if I am wrong! :)

there is no universally accepted definition of art. although commonly used to describe something of beauty, or a skill which produces an aesthetic result, there is no clear line in principle between (say) a unique piece of handmade sculpture, and a mass-produced but visually attractive item. we might say that art requires thought - some kind of creative impulse - but this raises more questions: for example, how much thought is required? if someone flings paint at a canvas, hoping by this action to create a work of art, does the result automatically constitute art?
