What I like about art

It is simple to believe that a three lettered word carries a big punch: 'ArT'. Art is a process that archives history, expresses emotions and engages the brain. Art gives visual and auditory reminders of past events. It blesses us with therapy to tap the subconscious mind of rape, and abuse victims or those grieving. Art endows us with substantial educational qualities: integration, problem solving, analyzing, perseverance, self-esteem building, critiquing and more. Art offers a catalyst for social interaction, social intervention, and pride. Art gives us voice.
For a few days I thought I would lose my voice. Waiting for the day I was to see a retina specialist, I imagined life with less sight. Drearie, muted color doomed my need for saturation in my art. Blurry lines played fickle with drawing. After those thoughts, the realization arrived that many artists are legally blind. There are vitamins, special glasses, surgeries, websites, associations, exhibitions, and much more for the low-vision artist. I would not be alone. Hope sprung. I realized, if wicked vision was my future, I'd have a whooping-grand adventure expressing the beauty of every day with this problem solving. Just what I adore about art. Fortunately, I was dismissed from the doctor with a simple daily test to do for watching my smushed rods and cones.
