The kind of art Yoko Ono creates is conceptual art and participatory art. Some of the art she created are "Wish Tree", "Hide and Seek", and "Cut Piece."

Sure. If you are drawing a new picture, whatever the subject, it is your original art.
She was an artist and filmmaker In New York and London. He met her at one of her London art shows.
Lennon didn't intend to meet Yoko Ono at first. A friend of Lennon's, John Dunbar, co-owned an art gallery where Ono put on a display of her works. Lennon was in the habit of visiting art galleries at the time, and saw the display a night before its official opening, while Ono was still putting everything in place. The fact that many of her "artworks" were basically sight gags, and carried a positive message, made Lennon want to get better acquainted with the artist.

No. She lived with art dealer Sam Havadtoy for years after Lennon's death, but they were never married. (Sean Lennon thanks "Mom and Sam" in the liner notes to his first album, Into The Sun.)
With the exception of an auction held in the 1980s to raise funds for Yoko Ono's Spirit Foundation charity, Yoko Ono rarely, if ever, sells off any of John's personal posessions (and has never sold off any of John's handwritten lyric sheets). The John Lennon handwritten lyric sheets that occasionally come up for sale at auction are items that John left behind in the studio, or otherwise discarded or abandoned in hotel rooms, etc. There was little thought that such items had any value back then -- and so they were often simply abandoned or thrown out. Studio employees, musicians, hotel employees and others would find them and keep them. Later, these items would be put up for auction, many of them changing hands through collectors over the years as prices rose. Yoko also does not sell off any of Lennon's original artwork. John Lennon released a series of signed lithographs (mostly of his nude drawings of Yoko) that occasionally come up for sale -- but all of his other "artwork" that is being sold today are reprints produced by Yoko -- not the original artwork. Yoko Ono has carefully collected and archived Lennon's personal artifacts, and occasionally has lent some of these items to museums so that Lennon fans around the world get a chance to see them.
John Lennon's first wife Cynthia Powell. Cynthia was one year older then John, she was born in 1939. She met John in a lettering class at an art school. They started dating in 1958 and were married in 1962. They were divorced in 1969 when John admitted his growing feelings for Yoko Ono.
