The Power Of Art Is In The Joy Is Gives

By Crystal Salazar


Individuals may not be aware of how much the power of art can impact on their everyday life. For centuries there has been ongoing debate about what constitutes a great art. In general as an individual, you could say that it is something that pleases all or any of your senses that you consider to be a piece of art. In the majority of cases, what you consider to be art, your colleagues may consider to be rubbish.

Arts and crafts are generally accepted as having therapeutic values and are often used by medical professionals as part of a treatment plan aimed at promoting well-being in patients. The style and intensity of a patients drawings and artwork can provide an insight for a therapist into the patients mental state. Children in particular can often draw or paint a picture of something that is causing them distress, but they are unable to put into words.

Art and the ability to recognize shapes and colors are often used to measure the development of children especially in their early years. Many of the programs shown for children rely heavily of the use of bright colors, music and movement to attract and keep the attention of the children. If you have ever watched a child who seems to be totally engrossed in their favorite program they are totally focused.

If you look at someones choice of wallpaper and paint colors in their home, it usually reflects their personality. The same applies to the colors and patterns of the clothes they choose to wear and bold and brash, usually means they have a loud personality. However, there are some who deliberately choose to hide their real personality behind bright and bold, because they want to hide their vulnerability.

You would find it extremely difficult to find someone who detests every type of music. You may not be a fan of some types of music such as jazz or classical music, but there is always one type that will appeal to you. Advertiser sells products by using popular tunes when creating their adverts. Subconsciously, every time you hear that tune, they hope you will think about their product.

Music plays and important role in the health and well-being arena. Music has been proven to be beneficial in promoting a state of relaxation and relieving stress. That is one of the main reasons why many organizations have adopted the practice of playing music on the phone while you are waiting for your call to be answered.

There are thousands of artworks spread around the world that are considered to be priceless. But for many people the real artwork is the one that brings your emotions to the fore. It does not have to be priceless in terms of money, as long as it has been produced with love and care, it is priceless in the emotion stakes.

It would be a pretty boring world if everyone shared the same perceptions about artworks in terms of what is good and what is bad art. Whatever form your art contribution takes, if it reflects even a little bit of you and how you feel and brings emotions to the fore in others, it is art. The power of art lies in being able to share your emotions and feelings with others.
