What Is Art?
Remember that jocular saying that goes something like – “I don’t know about art but I know what I like”? Many a true word can be spoken in jest and that is certainly true about art since, as a subject, it can be just about anything you want it to be.
According To The Dictionary
Art is the expression or application of creative skill and imagination: especially through a visual medium such as painting or sculpture. From this statement alone, it should be obvious to any parent, in South Carolina or nationwide, that any tuition that encourages their children to think and act creatively has got to be beneficial.
The Arts
A quirk of language widens the scope when we use the plural since “arts” covers just about everything relating to creative activities. Fine art covers traditional style painting; performance art seems to cover almost anything carried out for public display; and the list continues through things like: – music, literature, drama, model making and dance of all styles. So, even if your child turns out to be somewhat useless with a paint brush (does that matter if they are enjoying themselves?); there are plenty of other areas available that can harness their creativity.
Isn’t It All Natural Flair?
To some extent this is true and some children are born with good artistic skills. However, we all should have some creativity somewhere within ourselves and any type of art tuition will not only; refine and tune the natural abilities of those that have them; but, will also help to bring out hidden talents. It has also been shown that art can be therapeutic and especially beneficial for children (and adults) with problems – regardless of whether they possess excellent talent or not.
Don’t They Teach Art In Basic Schools?
True, from kindergarten onwards, classes in the arts are part of most curriculums but art is often taught in schools on a sort of “take it or leave it –do as you are told” basis rather than individual tuition aimed at helping each child express themselves better and more creatively.
