Essence of Art.

The perspective of a visual artist.

By Daniel Jordan SmithPublished 4 years ago 1 min read

Growing up, I have always been engaged in forms of art. Evoked emotionally by things that are pleasing to the eye. Things that hold your attention and draw you in. Yet at the same time, let your mind run wild and free with interpretation.

Art for me, is a way in which we communicate our most profound intended emotions, thoughts and desires. Which cannot be expressed through words alone. They must be inscribed, painted and moulded into reality, and are bound only by the limits of our imagination. It is a way to vent… a way to escape. To let every notion, thought and feeling, run freely upon a blank canvas, as an extension of our personality.
