Art Education & The Value Of Writing

By Katie Arden


Everyone has their own ways of conveying emotions, which goes without saying. You have to understand that various platforms can be used, some of them more favorable than others. For those who specialize in art, regardless of the particular medium, one can argue that writing is one of the finest. If you are someone who is curious as to how writing can serve this type of purpose, outside of education, here are a few points worth recognizing.

It's easy to see that writers can get involved in a number of professions, depending on where their interests lie. For example, if you are someone who is into marketing, you may be able to construct press releases and the like. If you are heavy into game design, your skills can come into effect for the sake of creating strong narratives. As you can see, writing has an influence in art school but what about the ways in which writing can be brought into effect outside of it?

Creative writing is, in my view, one of the most engaging forms of art that anyone can get involved in. It was something I was especially into during my time in college, since I was not able to tackle this as much as I could have in most of my classes. Instead, I allowed myself a certain degree of time to write for myself, which was more than helpful. The ability to create anything, ranging from blogs to short stories, was made possible because of this style of writing.

Writing can also be used in order to forge friendships when they probably wouldn't have been made otherwise. Keep in mind that there are many people who aren't able to effectively interact with others, in standard scenarios, meaning that other avenues would have to be taken up instead. Writing is just one of said avenues and you can be certain that its effectiveness will be especially strong. Without this art form, who knows if friendships would be made otherwise?

To say that writing has many benefits would be an understatement. What makes it even better is that you do not necessarily have to be skilled in order to get involved in writing; you simply have to possess an idea and the drive to make said idea come to life. Yes, writing can serve as something of a gateway when it comes to a person's future in the professional sense. For their own comfort and leisure, though, it's an activity that shouldn't be stopped.
