Creativity and art

Art is an attempt to bring order out of chaos - Stephen Sondheim

     Art. A simple three-letter word, but the meaning of which transcends definition. Any form of creativity gives birth to art. Art, being an outlet, an expression of oneself and one’s perception, has no rules or limits. It is purely open to exploration, discovery, and innovation. Without art, the world would be very dull indeed!
Art does not consist only of drawings and paintings, but also sculptures, any kind of designing, any form of creativity.
It is often said that artists view the world in a different light and have irrational fancies. I would say that, we all view the world differently but, many of us are afraid of accepting this fact and hence, try to conform to standard norms.
Artists are the people who attempt to convey their perception through a medium without fear of judgement or criticism. So very aptly said by someone that, “To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.”
Thus, the lovers of art find satisfaction in their works. It brings out their real selves, whether it depicts aesthetic appeal or their eloquent rawness. Neither afraid to reveal their flaws, nor shy to showcase the beauty of their souls.
The best of both worlds co-exist in each of us.
Explore. Introspect. Accept. Improve. Rejoice. Celebrate.
