Inspirational Art

By Emily Sigidson


Inspiration can be found in so many places. It can mean different things to different people, which is quite possibly why we find it so awe inspiring. It is because of this ability that we are able to create and engage in some of the most powerful and wonderful things this world has to offer.

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.

It is important to keep in mind that the source for motivation may not always come from a positive experience. Because of the broad range of heartfelt emotions, we are able to experience art and feeling in its rawest form.

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!
