Inspirational Art

By Emily Sigidson


What inspires you? If you asked 100 different people that same question, you would undoubtedly get 100 different answers. That is the great thing about inspiration-it can be found almost anywhere. From athletes to mothers, we all require some form of motivation. Inspiration has proven to lead to the execution many great talents and can be attributed to much earth's great beauty.

Nevertheless, for a painter, it is a mandatory knack to be capable of portraying what affects and inspires you. Success is found when this ability is awakened and portrayed into a painting. It is a most incredible thing to bare witness to the emotion felt by the artist and proves the best evidence for the power of this ability.

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.

The source of inspiration may not be the pivotal point of the painting. But do not let that deter you from recognizing its impact. Most of the time, this is the artist telling you to take your time and observe. Make note of the small details and allow them to take you to a certain memory or emotion that is significant to you.

Now that you are aware of this little known fact, make sure you take your time with a piece of art. Recognize the inconspicuous. Let the artwork take you to a memory and move you. This is when you will become a true appreciator of the art of inspiration. You will be glad you did!
