Grant Eckert's Articles in Arts and Humanities

  • Digital Tools to Take Your Art to the Next Level
    The advent of technology has introduced significant changes into the art world. While artists continue to produce work in the "traditional" manner, many are turning to the computer and technology to advance or change the way they do things. Out of this has arisen digital art.
  • Art and How it Benefits the Brain
    Many people question the purpose of art. They acknowledge an aesthetic approach but ignore any possible positive benefits of a more practical nature. Contrary to popular belief, art is not purely aesthetic. It is not a product with no possible effects outside of the obvious - an "artistic" product. Art is not of less use than science in preparing individuals for the "real" world. In fact, the contrary is true. Art is very important in helping the brain reach its full potential.
  • Three Things to Look for in an Art School
    If you are planning to enter an art school, you should be aware there are a number of options from which to choose. Sit down and consider several important personal characteristics. These will help you in the process. First, list what your goals are. Do you wish to teach art? What medium do you wish to work in? Are you planning to become a graphic artist, a portrait painter or a commercial artist?
  • Art's Impact on Society
    Art is an extremely private experience, yet, it is meant to be shared with the public. Society, as a whole, examines the art produced and has the right to approve, disapprove, acknowledge, ignore, praise and abuse it. The public or society has not remained constant over the years. In the time of the Renaissance, for example, only a select few were "society." They commissioned art, were patrons of the arts and their artists. Today, almost anyone can share in the experience of art. They can attempt to create, view and act as a critic.
