UNIT 2. Various Forms of Art

AVOCATIONAL AND CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

LEARNING FROM ART

Art has the power to challenge our minds and stir up our feelings. The ability to interpret art can be learned with practice. This art program will prepare you to use your eyes and mind to analyze many different kinds of art. As each new art experience unfolds, your ability to perceive and create art will increase. You can always learn from art, whether or not you choose to pursue art as a vocation, or

career. Studying or creating art as a hobby also helps you gain knowledge of and

appreciation for art.

There are many avocational opportunities in art. Avocational means not related to a job or career. Creating paintings, jewelry, fiberart, or ceramics can be fun and rewarding.

Pursuing art for personal enjoyment can teach you life skills as well. It can help

strengthen your problem-solving skills. For example, you can use the elements and principles of art to come up with a design solution for a project. Creating art for recreation also allows you to experiment with a variety of tools, materials, and techniques.

Creating art as an avocation can sharpen your interpersonal skills, which involves working and communicating with others. For example, you might participate in a group critique after creating a studio project in the classroom. This can improve your ability to analyze works by peers and others. It can also help provide insight into your personal art works.
