Living With Art!!!!

Artists do many things for the people of the world...  Without artists, people would not have any idea what earlier times looked like... there are many types of artists including industrial designers, , architects, etc.. They are the people who create what others can not create or can not think to create.. Some artists like Horace Pippin depict times that were not like today.. and had slavery and discrimination... Other artists depict what could or in some minds "could not" happen.. like beasts and evil... the possible and impossible... etc... Artists tend to depict what they feel and how they feel it and in which way they feel how they feel.. sounds deep but when u break it down it just... works... and thats how u get creativity and individuality.. Creativity includes deep thought and the ability to see things that people don't normally see... Giuseppe Arcimboldo went to a store and saw fruit and veggies and transformed them into art... Andre Derain took a landscape and turned it into something different using colors that aren't ordinary but actually tend to work like in another reality or something... Creativity is apparent in both of these as they make something apparent that was not apparent before.. Like the reading says there are many things about creativity and many works and writings on it and I'm not going into everything.. The reading also provides terms which I would not like to list as I can study them and not have to type so much lol :-P.. Creativity and artists have a place in every aspect of human nature... Some people think all art should be beautiful... but some artists may prefer ugly works of art because that is what they are trying to depict... Some artists use their mood to depend on what type of art they are going to do and what that type of art will look like... Others prefer types of art over other types and purposely do the types that they aren't fond of in a negative manner to show that they aren't fond of it... Some people tend to think that artists all have to draw well but that is not necessarily the case... some artists can not draw lifelike at all but can produce amazing works of art... some artists like picasso can draw really well but choose not to...Some works are simple and some works are very detailed... Representational art or naturalistic art is art that looks real... like it was a picture kinda... it is meant to depict real situations and real people... Abstract art is meant to take a reference but only a reference... it represents the reference but there is much abstraction... only the minimum detail has been given so we can identify what the artwork is representing... Nonrepresentational art has no reference or influence to anything.. it does not depict people or nature, etc... it is just simply nonrepresentational... Art though... IS expression... no matter what art can or can not be... it is always done in the way that the artist... Expresses.. it... what he/she is influenced by... or how they feel...
