salam, hello, its me again
i just wanna share my opinion about art. yesterday when i drove back from work, i was listening to radio and i was listening to ‘the one in million’ star, faizal…he sang a medley of rock songs that were so creatively arranged, he was so smart to collaborate those songs into one, that i found so creative, innovative and inspiring that inspired me to write about art…well, singing, composing songs are form of art as well.. for me, this form of art if directed in to the right path, would inspire people, would make people feel enthusiastic, would make people believe in themselves. well, it depends on how people embracing the idea of music as a medium to inspire people…for me music is universal, music is in fact a medium to express the wave of creativity in our brain..as long as people know how to use it correctly, music does make very big impact in human life, just take RAIHAN group as the example..this group inspire many people thru their music, thru their song, thru their lyrics, well, they do inspire me though…well, my point about art is not in music only,it is about believing yourself..it is about discovering the ‘creativity’ that was "installed" in you the day you were born in this world..
long ago,i used to hate art lesson when i was in school, because i could not draw. i never got gud grades, in music as well in drawing(these are the branch of art right?). i never thought i was blessed with art skill. most of my siblings are gud with art, my brothers can draw pictures well, my eldest sister can stitch well, makes gud baju, curtains, and can draw pictures well too, some of my sisters can cook well, even can plant tree, neither of these talent i could do before(well, i could cook though, but not to the extend of cooking ‘nasi beriani’, my favourite food, still learing, still learning though, huhu)..long ago, i was so upset for not having any art skill in myself, until after i finished studying at uni.
i got into art, when i was in uni, when i was in second year, when i started to get interested into fashion design, house interior decoration and not to forget, makeup, hehehe.
i indulged myself into lots of fashion magazines, house interior design books and mags, and makeup update just because i loved to know more, i started to be impressed with the creativity that people had in making things looked extremely gud and ‘non-chalantly’ well done . thanks to my bros n sis who bought lots of house interior design books n mags, i am now knowlegable about house decorating that one of my architecture fren got impressed with my opinion of house and home interior design.
i remembered i was never gud in applying makeup.i was gud at it after i started to buy my own makeup kits. i started to selflearnt about applying makeup. now, i am impressed of myself for having the ability to apply gud makeup not only to myself but also to my frens. even my frens also impressed with my ability,(well, dont laugh at me when i said i am gud in makeup, well, sometimes u have to say welldone to yourself, even the thing that u did was tiny-winy thingy)..
the discovery of being gud with makeup,made me started to believe in myself that i do have art talent, well, appying makeup is like art, it is like painting colors on canvas, but it is not on canvas though, it is on human canvas, hehehe, well at least i know im gud with colors..
i used to be so not confident when it came to flowers arrangement, i thought it was so difficult, only those people with gud hands could do that. well, i now could do more that flower arrangement, i am now even able to do wedding gift decorations…i was surprised to discover this new talent, i thought i would never be gud in art, but thanks to my fren who saw creativity in me and asked me to do help her with her wedding gift, that i knew i have talent in art…
another art ability that i think i have is, i have the ability in writing poem and, recently i was surprised to discover that i was able to compose songs,well not with the music note la..still, it is a form of art right?
the point that i want to point is, art is something that makes people special. art is a way to express ourself, art is a path to discover something new in yourself…art makes people to feel gud about themselves, art makes you beautiful, and art could drive you to be more that ordinary person…and for this, i think the point to ponder is, love yourself, never stop to discover the new you…
