Why Art? Introduction

This is the first blog in the series Why Art? We will focus mainly on the importance of art in society and culture, where inspiration comes from, and various ways artists employ techniques to express themselves.

So, why art?

Art isn’t just for looking at. It’s meant to tell stories, to drive philosophies, to conceptualize political ideologies. It is for when words cannot be used enough to describe ideas. It is how we connect with others, how we cope.

Some find it nice in passing. For others, art is a necessity.

One cannot just look at art, but rather one must understand it, to observe it, to feel it, to live in it.

No matter your background, we are all able to bask in the colors, textures, and even beauty or ugliness of compositions.

This is what is so exciting about art.

Hopefully, by the end of this series, you will be able to apply the concepts discussed here as a way to better appreciate Art Hub Studios artists.
