Does Art help? – Continued

Posted a few days ago about Art and how it might help. Was thinking along the lines of helping during a cancer adventure but also how it helps after that adventure. And now, also thinking outside of cancer and how it can help with life in general.

I was chatting(Texting with a close friend yesterday evening. This friend is going through the horrors and rigours of chemotherapy at present. I can get it …

I texted to this friend “Sometimes think we are all blessed with artistic talents but without recognition and cultivation these talents rarely flourish We need to cultivate even the slightish inkling of artistic inclinations”

And then ,

“Go to the art galleries Join the art classes Read the literature Write in the blank page or screen Let yourself loose on the paper with pen or pencil Never leave a canvas clear of paint”

Add to that – Go to the concerts – Listen to the Music – Read and speak aloud the poetry -Write your own poetry –

Lots of other Arts not mentioned – Am not finished with this subject
