Effort is not a measure of quality or value in art.

Remember:

Duct tape + banana + wall + 3 minutes = incredibly valuable and controversial art.

Me taking a year to paint a detailed depiction of a bowl of fruit = worthless, terrible art.

Results are what people care about, not effort.



Your examples contradict your ending statement. If results are what people care about, neither of those would have value.
