The Persuasive Art Life

Should art be a required subject for all children in schools?

            Do you ever think of how unique and helpful art classes have become in children’s creativity and artistic skills during the past years? Well many kids during middle school and high school are looking forward to become artist. A lot more students never notice how talented they are until later on when they are grown up teens. A few of many reasons why kids don’t develop the Picasso inside them. First, because many kids do not have a specific art class while they are in middle school that can help them to be patient and passive instead of aggressive. Also the absence of constant flow of creativity will make kids miss the multiple perspective of life. I believe that an art class should be a requirement subject for kids to be able to move on to high school. As well for high school students to graduate and be able to move on to a better education in college.

            Art classes are not just drawing or painting. An introductory class of art is an educational class where students will learn importance of art documents in behavior and control in their personality. The reason why art classes should implied to kids while they are in middle school and high school is because art has been part of a peaceful and very entertaining therapy since human’s medicine development. Many articles are taking stand on this creativity topic because many kids are showing aggressive behavior on field of patient when their problems are not solved. Children in high schools are turning their personality to a non-sentimental individuals with low capacity of solving complicated problems and a lack smooth attitude.

            The second reason why art should be a requirement in school. It is because an art class will give kids perspective and learning methods. Once children and teenagers participate in art classes in general. They will show improvement on problem solving, perspective, and analysis of information. These improvement will be done thanks to art appreciation. In this case with the kid will simulate scenarios where his imagination and feelings will be used causing them to release stress and mold their mood of enjoyment. Other way art will support the student with analysis of information will be by categorizing paintings and restate them as an understandable wording for their brain.

Generally speaking, these two points above are my most important statements of why art classes should be a requirement. Kids and teenagers are showing improvement on stable behavior thanks to an art class occupation. This classes are not just to maintain the student busy and mold their personality but also to give kids and teenagers a solid mental balance when problems arrive. So why not signing in for an art class? Uh?

Problem-Solution

            The lack of creativity has been increasing in the past several years. Children and adults are not putting much attention to art skills or knowledge. Since I was little, my middle school teachers have been motivating me to do better with illustrations or neatness of my handwriting which is also part of art font. I personally have no problem with imagination or creativity, but I have seen many of my partners struggle on assignments because of the nonexistence of creativity while drawing or illustrating an image. Also, there is a variant on the lack of knowledge students acquire in general education during high school. For example, high school students that take art classes don’t learn the general basics of art history. While it appears to be a controversial fact that people are losing creativity and not learning enough from the General Education System of art.

            Creativity is an issue that most of the people absence while they try to create a piece of art. When I was little, I noticed my friends struggling in art classes. Let's say, the assignment was to present an ecosystem. They would usually go online and search for images and print the images. On the other hand, for me, this was my chance to be creative and have a board where I could draw, paint, and add whatever I needed to show to give a good presentation. In my old educational system, teachers would force students to create their own work. Students would have to choose their own model and style where imagination does not have boundaries.

            Another problem with expansion of creativity is the absence of information. There are more than a few cases where people are not fascinated about art because they do not have enough information to hook their attention. Education before college matters as much as the kindergarten educational system.  Art is not all about drawing, painting, or decorating the paper. On November 3, Van Gogh said: “I’m drawing a great deal and think it’s getting better” (1881). There are many ways to see this quote, but when drawing and knowledge are a priority creativity grows. Together, learning and creativity is the only way to become better at art. There are several ways to address the problem of absence of art knowledge. One way of addressing the problem would be learning more information about the nature of each art activity to see what is better for you when making art.

            In conclusion, if you are struggling with dealing with an assignment where drawing or illustration is the main idea, don’t worry. There are so many classes where they can teach you styles and perspectives of how to jump to work on your creation. I would recommend taking an introductory art class that illustrates various forms of art. Because, there is no fun if you don’t know where the general ideas and stories come from. Therefore, the solution to the deficiency of knowledge and creativity can be fixed through.
