What Art are You?

Anything that we do that is an expression of us and that which produces something that is pleasing to our senses is what we call art. This is why artworks for sale come in many forms and some do not just cater to our vision but to others, as well. However, not all can relate to one art. One form stimulates the feelings of some while the other projects no effect at all.

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!
