You are: The Savant
THE SAVANT(Intellectual, Philosopher)“Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.” Thomas MertonSavant’s are more creative and outgoing than most. They are imaginative, adventurous, and they’re willing to take risks. Art and understanding complex artistic methodologies can be as natural as breathing to them.What Are Savants Like?Savants tend to be more extroverted than their peers, and they are open to new experiences preferring art that is intense and intellectually stimulating, figurative works especially.::Other Savant artists in history:: Raffaello Santi, Correggio, Leonardo da Vinci, Gustave Courbet just to name a few.Ready to push your art journey to the NEXT LEVEL?1) Set a schedule and stick to it. The number one factor separating hobbyist from artists is — yep, you guessed it — consistency. Painting or drawing everyday provides not only practice and knowledge, but confidence in whatever medium you are using.2) Be yourself! Maybe this sounds like a no-brainer, but it’s definitely easier said than done, especially in the art world. Stop comparing your work to other artists work, start experimenting and adding what you love in art to your own pieces. This is a great way to find your own voice and express yourself.3) Know who you are, the message you want to share with the world and how you want to share it. Practice being present, listening to yourselves throughout the creative process. We need to take some risks in order to create something from scratch that’s truly yours.
