Inspirational Art

By Emily Sigidson


Different things inspire different people. This is possibly the most awesome and bewildering fact about inspiration-it is accessible through many different channels. It is because of inspiration sourcing that we are able to witness and take part in much of the world's most beautiful creations. This can be across all aspects of life. From music to motherhood, we all require some form of encouragement.

However, for an artist, it is a necessary skill to ensure you are channeling what moves you. The best part is when this feeling is captured and can be relayed upon a canvas. When the emotion and mindset of the artist is turned into a powerful visual; that is the greatest evidence of prevailing inspiration.

However, the source of inspiration may not always come from a positive place. It is because of the range of emotions (from betrayal to overwhelming happiness) that we are able to witness such powerful works of art.

Many times, artists will feel the need to nonchalantly showcase their inspirations within their artwork. For this reason, it is important the viewer to take his time with each painting to ensure they are really capturing all aspects presented in the artwork.

Though the image or character may not lie at the forefront of the work, it does not mean it does not hold great significance. This is often the artist asking you to look deeper. They now want to inspire you to channel what this visual means to you. Let it take you to a different place.

Given this fact, it is important for the viewer to really step back and take their time with a painting. Notice the small features. They may completely alter your interpretation. Allow yourself to channel what that painting means to you. This is when you can truly begin to understand and appreciate the art of inspiration.
