Most people usually try to achieve specific "Tips" or "Steps" to find a way to polish their creativity while producing art. well, all art consist of a concept embedded in a medium that is important to know. its manipulation to provide the best tool to apply our ideas with certainty. But, is it all about to know? We also should consider our imagination to "create" fascinating things.

Besides that we should consider the following two points as preparing our mind for a project:


What does the artist want to show to the audience?


It may be an emotion, information, or some combination of the two. Representational art, which alludes to some real phenomenon - that is, something which is identifiable by a majority of people - may be said to have a subject. Abstract art may have a subject in the mind of the artist, but if this subject is not readily apprehensible by most viewers, either from the artwork itself or its title, then any imputation of subject is in the mind of the audience and will vary between individuals.


Knowing the medium makes easy the design process!


The medium is the mode of expression or communication used by the artist to convey the concept at hand. It may be concrete, as in the case of a painting or sculpture, or ephemeral, as in the case of a sound recording, motion picture, or book. A technical understanding of the medium consists of knowledge of the materials that the artist is working with and knowledge of how it may be manipulated to fit the conception of the artist. For instance, painting might include a knowledge of the behavior of different types of paint and the degree to which they can be intermixed.


Instead of realism.. Why don't we decompose those elements around us to be re-transformed?

The creative process, regardless of the medium employed, differences between artists in their methods of realizing an art work. These differences are superficial. We will now examine the unifying factors which are common to all works of art and the process of creating art.


The understanding of a medium is necessary but not completely crucial for the creation of art.




From a different perspective, the understanding of a medium is necessary but not completely crucial for the creation of art. Indeed, a full understanding of a medium does not equate to a capacity for creation. Such a full understanding may be available to the scientist or critic to define the bounds of possibility for expression within the medium. In other words,

we can say that no drawing is possible until the would-be artist has grasped the idea of using an object to make a mark upon a surface. At the other extreme is the understanding of how to render any given effect on demand of our ideas and feelings as base of our artistic production.


A touch of your own expression.. Find yourself!






While understanding of a medium gives the artist the knowledge of how to produce something, expression is the ability to decide what to produce




Contemporary artist may deliberately make a statement about technique or choose to mimic the style and characteristics of the untrained (often imitating the work of children). At the opposite extreme are those individuals who can produce highly accurate reproductions of things seen or heard, but are quite unable to produce anything original from their imagination.


While understanding of a medium gives the artist the knowledge of how to produce something, expression is the ability to decide what to produce, and make choices about the manner of production. We can say that expression consists of having something to say to the audience; this may be a declaration of beauty, a declaration of affinity between two apparently dissimilar objects or phenomena, or a desire to give form to an abstraction.


Communication is equally important as expression. While many of the traditional arts (drawing, painting, sculpture) are expressive and emotional, contemporary society is a multimedia visual culture. Many artists use the elements and principles of visual design to effectively convey the intended information.


The elements and principles of visual art have been studied for many years, resulting in rules or standards for composition. These rules can be strictly applied, used as loose guides, or intentionally broken. Their goal is often to achieve balance, optimize impact, or more thoroughly communicate or just express the concept.


What's your Individual concept?


The creative process is the application of an individual's concept to a medium


The creative process is the application of an individual's concept to a medium which they have some skill in manipulating. For the ambitious artist, the task is to first find a medium in which they want to represent something, develop some level of skill in shaping that medium to represent simple things, and finally to choose something for representation which can be realized without too many distracting refinements of technique. The surer one is about how to do something, the more concentration can be applied towards the question of what to do, and looking for your faithful feelings.
