Music is art. It enters through the ears and gets
the listeners carried away. Music targets the emotion of the one who hears and
when it hits the one whose current feelings and mood match the lyrics and beat
of the song, the effect such art gives is an instant powerful expression of the
person’s emotion. And so is a wall painting. Just by looking at it, one can
internalize the contrast of colors, the subdued figures, the emotion poured by
the artist to create such masterpiece and which this only happens when the
feelings of the viewer relate to the artwork he is viewing. And how about
cooking?
Lately we hear that cooking is an art. And because
it is, it then becomes a hobby of some elite. It is an expensive diversion of
time when before cooking was deemed as taxing chores at the home front. Now
that it is an art, foods do not just anymore cater to sense of taste but the
presentation should likewise be appealing to the sight. That is why garnishing
is very important. Table setting creates an ambiance. Lighting does the same
while playing some good music on the side that matches the dishes served. And
yes, we do not forget to create dishes that look like artworks for sale. We
make sure there are blend of colors where the color of the sauce would be
contrasted and accentuated with that of the ingredients. An all green food is
not palatable at all. There should be a hint of red, a touch of yellow, and
some other more to almost resemble it to a rainbow.
But just as we mentioned, each has his or her own
art hidden within. One might have not discovered, expressed, or developed it
yet but it will come out in due time if he or she is only keen with the basic.
Realization of what is your true art is not far-fetched, anyway. Just remind
yourself of not just what interests you but what you truly appreciate and you
know what art you would fit in. Let it come out of you without inhibition and
you might be surprised with your new discovery! It is you in harmony with your
true art. And who knows that yours later on will be the most sought artwork for
sale!
