The above is from Analytic of the Sublime within Kant's Critique of Judgment; his distinction between art and handicraft is characteristic of Seth Godin's idea of art as a gift in his book Linchpin.
As you may know, Kant is known for his demanding definitions. Relevant in this case is the definition of "free," as in "free to create something of value." For Kant, no act is free if it is ultimately by an external motive. That is to say, if the motivation is money, then the act is not art, because the thing ultimately driving the act is not the doer but the thing providing the reward (this actually applies even if the intent is to use the money for something internal, like the desire for food - in this case, nature is the driver, not the thinker). No large point here, just another exploration of natural value in contrast to monetary value to consider.
