All art is cheesy. If you briefly find any of it profound it's only because in some aspect you are briefly a 13 year old boy full of awe and excitement.

That's what "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" is diplomatically trying to say.

Art can evoke a wide range of reactions, and that's often what makes it so powerful and meaningful
Appreciating it requires a certain state of mind. A state of mind of a 13 year old boy, in one way or another, looking at Boris Valleyo painting.
Art resonates with people of all ages in different ways :)
In ways as different as one snowflake is from the other that falls next to it. ;-)
