To many ART is a foreign concept, or so they think. People perceive
art to be in a completely different realm of thinking. I see art as I feel it
was truly meant to be, as an outlet for passion and imagination, which everyone
in the world has.
When I think art, like most people, I think, paintings,
sculptures, drawings, and occasionally the blank white canvas that we all wish
we understood. The truth is there is so much more to it than that. The simplest
things can be seen as art. For instance, a simple wedding vow can be a work of
art. In a vow, you have taken ideas, passion, imagination, and love and turned
it into an expression through words. Even simpler, a hairstyle you have taken
time to do is a work of art. You have taken an idea and created something
beautiful for everyone to see.
I, for one, love to envision the world through art! A
political speech, a garden full of flowers, even the arrangement of furniture
in your house (OK maybe I’m pushing that one a little bit, but hey,
Feng Shui).
The point is, that you don’t need to be an artist or a poet to have art in your
life or produce beautiful things. You only have to be aware and search to find
the art in everyday life I assure you your life will become so much more
interesting and beautiful once you stop, look around and discover the passion
and hard work put into simple everyday tasks that we may usually just ignore.
