Let’s talk Art!

Artists think outside the box. Their creative and innovative thoughts are often precursors to the actualization of a concept or product. Creative thinking propels companies into the next phase of business development and societies into cultural evolutions. Reflections, disagreements, and protests are necessary parts of change in ideas and values. This all comes about through communication and connection. Artists networking with other artists. Ideas romanced and brainstormed. Minds dancing and growing. Products improving and advancing. When does the artist stray too far from the box? When is creativity controversial and who gets to decide that?

A quick Google search shows that the word culture encompasses “the arts and other manifestations of human intellectual achievement regarded collectively” and “the customs, arts, social institutions, and achievements of a particular nation, people, or another social group.” This means that individually made pieces of art can have a tremendous impact on a collective, a group, depending on the subject and message.

Most often, artists are fully focused on their creative processes and are lost when it comes to developing their product for a market to create an environment of revenue for continuation of the work. On the one hand, artists need the symbiotic interactions with cutting-edge innovators which are needed to develop and propel the designs, and on the other hand, a warm and genuine rapport with a community will create the value and importance.

Ideas need to percolate and permeate. Thoughts need rumination. Each entry in this blog will address current topics in the art world and is aiming to come to some deeper understanding of the complex impact that ideas can have on the community and vice versa.

Although I am an artist myself, I found that my brain is quite balanced, and I am very capable of helping others succeed in their art careers by writing, networking, and other forms of communications, while at other times switching gears and think from a business perspective.

Human connection and humans making things talkable is most important to keep a people happy and a community thriving. Let’s talk art!
