In the challenge rules explain what does the art limits include?
I know basic art but if someone does crafts,decorating food itemsis this part of the art that's a no no?
I believe the rule is there to stop you photographing the Mona Lisa (or similar work), including nothing else in the shot, and passing the image off as a new piece of art.
It depends. If you take the photo in a manner that we are judging the PHOTO than it is usually considered legal. However, if you take the photo in a way that looks like we should judge the ART itself, then it might not be ok. I don't recall any actual built crafts being DQed. Usually it is when someone takes a photo of a photo or painting that is considered against the rules.
Just do it creatively, and there should NOT be a problem.
This is not a definate assesment of the rules, it is just my interpretation. DQ requests get voted on by the SC, and my view my be different than someone elses.

My understanding is that you can take photos of works of art if you cast an interpretation on it. That's hard NOT to do with any photo, but I would think that in the spirit of things you (or I) wouldn't just be taking a straight shot at another work of art.
I can see someone taking a photo of the Mona Lisa, for example, if one were very close and provided perhaps a macro shot showing the brush strokes or something.
