Hello Art Friends! Are you looking for a new hobby that brings joy, inner peace, and quality time spent? If so, you might want to consider painting. In this post, I'll share three unique reasons why you should pick up a paintbrush today.
1. Enjoyment and Fulfillment
Painting is a form of self-expression that can bring great joy and satisfaction. It can be a great way to unwind and enjoy your free time, and also a quality time with yourself. The feeling of accomplishment after finishing a piece is unmatched. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced painter, you'll feel proud of what you created with your own hands.
2. Stress Relief
Painting can be a therapeutic and relaxing activity. It helps you forget about daily stressors and focus on the present moment, serving as an active form of meditation. In our fast-paced world with constant distractions, fast videos changing on our screen, alert reminders on our phone - painting can bring peace to your life and help you get connected with your inner self. DO MORE THINGS THAT MAKE YOU FORGET TO CHECK YOUR PHONE!!!
3. Improving Memory and Eyesight
Painting can help to improve memory, focus, and eyesight. It requires concentration and attention to detail, which can keep your mind sharp and alert. My own experience shows that painting can make a noticeable difference in your daily eyesight. This is something from my own experience – when I started painting realistic watercolor painting I wasn't complaining about my eyesight, I thought that everything is very good. But as I started careful study of references, details, focus on the tiniest details – I immediately noticed changes in my daily eyesight, I started to notice things that I haven't seen before. When going for a walk I saw little color changes that haven't seen before, little fallen Nature treasures that we most of the time step over and never notice.
There are many reasons to start painting, but I hope these three will inspire you to pick up a paintbrush today. Have a nice day and keep creating!
Best wishes,
