Well presented art pleases you from appearance, some types of art can make you think of the deeper meanings behind it and all that (some people enjoy that sorta thing more than others) some types of art, like with characters and ocs act a bit like a book where you can, instead of reading, figure out the characters based on what they are drawn doing and what the arrest chooses to explain about them. But overall if you are the artist there is a huge satisfaction that comes with finishing a piece of art (for me at least) especially when you have spent lots of time on it and it's fun to create, and explore all the different aspects of art and what things you can draw! (Art may not be for everyone, if it's looking at it or creating it but there are always people who enjoy it so in short I would just say 'its fun' :3 )

You can look at it from a subjective and objective perspective.
The subjective one depends on people's taste, emotional connection, personal experiences... and you can't control it, it's the reason why one person might love a piece, and the next think it's terrible, and the next feel indifferent.
The objective one regards things like composition, storytelling, anatomy, structure... skills you can learn that make a piece work.
So a piece can be very relatable, yet have terrible anatomy and structure. Can be perfectly crafted skill-wise, yet leave many people indifferent. Can be "good" and still get some people's hate, can be "bad" and still be appreciated. You get where I'm going?
There's no set rule for what makes art good, just skills you can hone over time and the courage to share the fruits of that progress as you go.
