The Passion of Making Art

There was a few questions I was wondering about making art. Perhaps some people have been wondering the same questions about art. Lynette Slape

I always wondered what makes figure sculpture so addictive; perhaps it is the feeling of accopmplishent, or the beauty of the body.  I no one thing figure sculpture allows me to forget about whatever is going on in my life for a few hours.  I no certain people who are against nude art because they think it is crude and embarrasses them.  The human body is so complex and to accomplish copying the body in clay is such a huge accomplishment it makes me feel like I have accomplished.  I feel close to being God like when I am creating art because god creates us.  My creations are so important to me because thei mine and I am doing my very best on these creations.  I feel like these creations are a part of me and they are worth a lot in my eyes because I made them the best I could.  I believe God cares about us in a similar way because he is our creator and we are his are creation.  

What make an artist want to sculpt or draw that picture or person?

The first way is the light shines off the person in such away it is beautiful.  The second way it is different shades of shadow makes the muscles pop out.  The vertical lines within the picture plan lead you eye through the body.  The emotion on the face and the pose is beautiful.  Personally I like models with muscles so I can see what is there with all of the shapes.  

Why is art so intoxication that the artist must eat, sleep and breathe art?

Make art is like a bowl of food it nourishes the body so you can wake up the next morning refreshed; like making a stunning painting it refreshes you to want to do more.  The ability to create, to start with a blank sheet of paper, or a lump of clay and magically turn it into something that is appealing to the eye feels really good and you feel almost like you are God like.  To create a human on paper or clay and bring that person to life will cause that person to live forever in memory.  There is nothing like coming across a crisp painting in a museum and seeing the emotion expressed through the painted person and you can not help to feel what that person is feeling.

What drives artist to make their medium so appealing?

In sculpture class the teacher will teach you to pay attention to stance of the person and the gesture or the object.  When you get the gesture right then yu can go in and sculpt the muscles and structure of the human.  The emotion of the sculpture makes the artists work appealing to the eye and the movement through the figure.

I believe that art helps us pay attention to the subjects around us.  Perhaps you noticed how the shadow is cast over the person you are talking to and you just have a desire to draw them.  You take a walk and you notice the pretty roses in someone garden because there color is so rich you have a desire to paint them.  You are walking home and you notice the sun setting with beautiful pinks and blues and oranges and you wish you could just sit and paint.  These are a few of the many reason we need art in our lives and so often it becomes our passion.
