Art Thoughts: Eternal Sunshine by Ariana Grande This work of art is a masterful take on being honest about our vulnerabilities, faults, and the realization that our choices make our stories. Our stories make our lives. And what we know about each person’s story is limited to what we understand and perceive. In a lot of ways, Ari says so much without saying much at all and in this particular instance, I was enraptured by it. She drew me in with the words and thoughts that I so often feel and allowed me to truly feel seen and heard for the parts of me that I don’t often act on but feel such guilt for feeling. It’s a compelling look behind the curtain of one of the most iconic yet complex superstars of our modern era. The Way (pun intended) she makes me feel like I am at the listening session of a young artist that is pouring their heart own in an album despite being one of the biggest stars is incredibly compelling. I also have to say that the editing and mixing of this album is on another level with their being an unmistakable story being told throughout with highs, lows, and the middles: something that isn’t often talked about.  Separating the art from the artist has always been a challenge for me and after the past few months, it has been hard for me as a fan to draw that line but through this album, I found something far greater. An artist with a greater understanding of her position of influence but one who also has every right to tell the world that she owes them nothing. A lesson I’m trying to learn and lean into. What a testament to where the artist and consumer responsibility lies and how that middle ground is forged through a realization that more often than not, our mistakes are common and much more understandable when the shoe is on the other foot. Thank you for this masterpiece, Ari. #artist #thoughts #creater #writer #review #learn #ariana #arianagrande #eternalsunshine #dream #make #immigrant #learner #scad #art #understand #perspective #performer #singer #wow #empathy #celebrity #samqavahjohn

To suggest otherwise would contradict the very essence of art. To claim that artists consciously shape their tales, music, or murals to fit predefined structures is to deny the existence of the precipice from which to leap, the abyss into which to plunge. Explanation alone cannot capture the magic of Enchantment.      Through their art, artists create a milieu that elevates the Poetic Soul. Artists lead us to the edge of the cliff, to the brink of the abyss, but they cannot push us over the edge. The artist engenders the potential for a willful plunge, conjuring the desire to dive into the abyss beyond explanation, where lies True Enchantment.      Embrace the mystique and profundity of art, where structure meets the sublime and explanation yields to Enchantment. https://lnkd.in/dPjGP5Qf                          I am seeking a new agent/representation.                            𝗕𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗟𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗘𝗻𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 #Storytelling #LiteraryAnalysis #StructuralAnalysis #Aesthetics #Creativity #Enchantment #PoeticSoul #BeyondExplanation #MagicOfArt #EmbraceTheAbyss #TrueEnchantment

How to recognize a pickup artist in time: 5 eloquent signs

LIFE AND ART The art(s) are important - vital, really - on an individual level and also on a broader, cultural level. And it makes a difference which kinds of art(s) we are discussing. Usually, when we have topics like this, we mean the most creative arts - the ones in which artists go from nothing to something. This includes painting, sculpture, writing (of all kinds), choreography, and composing music. It does not include the making of utilitarian objects, nor does it include collaborative efforts such as acting, dancing or singing. The art world suffers from a paucity of vocabulary, so I’ll call them the super-creative arts. These super-creative arts all live in what I long ago termed “the land beyond words”. This is the place in our psyches and souls where the linear form of talking and writing - of words - doesn’t serve adequately to express our full meaning and intentions. In writing, this inadequacy is why metaphor was developed. It is also why we change our facial expressions and use varying tones of voice - in order to express more than our mere words will carry. Music can convey our deepest feelings, and so can visual art and dance. They can work in the unspoken but intuited and well-trod pathways of emotional and spiritual longings, of grief, of love, of despair, and most importantly, of compassion and hope. When an artist opens themselves and creates deeply, they reveal an aspect of their humanity. In so doing, they provide a mirror available for others to use when they listen or view the art. In aggregate, over time, all the “mirrors” that artists create in any historical period become the most important and meaningful information that subsequent civilizations have available. All other data beyond the arts reduces to the equivalent of granary receipts. Through the efforts of super-artists, we can know ourselves more deeply. And we can learn about other cultures and history more intimately, more thoroughly. more richly - and thereby make better decisions about our own lives and societies. Without the arts, we would have only shallow, physical lives, and be mere shadows of our potential humanity. And there would be no such thing as “philosophy:. #art #artistsiva #artist #digitalmarketing #mentalhealth #creativity #management #success #ideas #startup #funding #linkedinartist

In the art world, a certificate of authenticity is the traditional guarantee of originality. Typically issued by artists, art dealers or private sellers, these certificates serve to distinguish genuine works from forgeries. The problem is that the actual proof of originality often amounts to little more than a signature on a piece of paper or a label on the back of an artwork—something that has proved all too tempting for fraudsters. #Biometrics #ArtAuthenticity #ForgeryPrevention #ArtMarket #DigitalArt

The sea, with its ever-changing moods and motions, has always been a rich source of inspiration for artists across the world. Its vast expanse, mysterious depths, and vibrant life forms provide endless material for exploration and expression in various forms of art. For painters, the sea offers a myriad of colors, shades, and textures. The way light bounces off the water's surface, the formation of the waves, and the subtle gradations of color at different times of the day can all be interpreted in unique and creative ways. In music, the sounds of the sea have directly influenced compositions, with rhythms mimicking the crashing waves or the calm ebb of the tides. Songs and melodies often use the sea as a backdrop, evoking feelings of longing, adventure, and love. Photographers and filmmakers are drawn to capture the sea's raw beauty and power. The play of light, the movement of sea creatures, and the drama of storms all provide stunning visual narratives.

🧱 Acknowledge Artist's Block Artist’s block is a very literal expression. Blocks must be acknowledged and dislodged. Filling the well is the surest way to do this. Creativity is play, but for shadow artists, learning to allow themselves to play is hard work. Protecting the Artist Child Within. To live a creative life, we must lose our fear of being wrong.  😓 Emotional Awareness When you are feeling depreciated, angry, or drained, it is a sign that other people are not open to your energy. Judging your early artistic efforts is artist abuse. Most of the time when we are blocked in an area of our life, it is because we feel safer that way. We may not be happy, but at least we know what we are—unhappy. Much fear of our own creativity is the fear of the unknown. #Creativity, #MorningPages, #ArtistDate, #CreativeRecovery, #SelfDiscovery, #Meditation, #InnerChild, #ArtisticJourney, #Inspiration, #CreativeProcess, #PersonalGrowth, #Mindfulness, #WritingCommunity, #ArtTherapy, #CreativeMind, #OvercomingBlocks, #EmotionalWellbeing, #CreativeNurturing, #HealingThroughArt, #JuliaCameron
