Art and other whatchamacall its


Music, paintings, drawing, poetry, writing, dancing, song and a combination of any number of these forms results in an expression. The most beautiful form of expression exists in a form of art. There is a simple reason why artists are always looking for new things and an explanation to why some of their behavior can be deemed as erratic. Artists are all masters of expression, all they look for is inspiration in new experiences, people and situations.



Every artist has their unique process through which they create art which is simply an expression of the way that they view the world. I love to write in the silence of the night. I recently read an article that outlined some humorous and possibly bizarre behaviour that writers sometimes follow in order to get their best work. The one I found most amusing is a writer who leaves his house every morning to go to work, says bye to his wife then walks around the block and knocks on his door.


Haha, we do have different views afterall


Art is a beautiful thing simply because it is an individual’s rendition of their view of the world, of life. For each of us, a certain connection is formed when we come across an art form that we relate to. Whether it is music, paintings, writing or even dance. It is as powerful as the aligning of planets because of its rarity that makes everything in that instant perfect. The result varies with the most lively example being a popular song playing at a club to the ecstatic response of the crowd simultaneously. picture wild screaming and energetic dancing. The almost direct opposite is a formal and poised art exhibitions where passionate appreciation is marked by polite nodding, wine glass in hand and controlled clapping at the end of the exhibiton.


I know talent when I see it, wow


I find such beauty in the fact that expressions of art are not limited. Since they are expressions, they can be anything. Emotions, ideas, views, improvements, opinions and even the lack of it sometimes. Art is not limited. One can even express their opinion of the unknown though we are unable to confirm the existence of it.




I love art. I love music, paintings, dance, theatre, movies and any form of expression that is authentic. I could almost say that art is life but it is a mere part of life as it is simply expression. Loving art is similar to loving people for without people there is no art. So here’s to artists, hidden talent and beautiful expressions, may you live forever.
