9 Points of Interest When Viewing Emotional Art   Does the artist technically achieve what he or she has intended to do? Even when focusing on expression, the technical aspects of fine art cannot be ignored. Poor proportion and lack of perspective stands out in all art and identifies the amateur. If this is the artist’s intention, that is ok, but much of the time it isn’t and the artist only stands out as ignorant and untrained. I find that even in Outsider Art (untrained and removed from the art world,) much of the time artists are still able to...

  Why Purchase Emotional Art? Because emotional art is original, creative and free. Many other popular styles such as neo-impressionism or so-called classical realism are based on copying an object, usually a photograph with craft and not creativity.

Friendship People are touchy. We lose friends, coworkers, relatives, husbands, wives over seemingly petty things and we never talk to them again. With our modern social media we block, blast, unfriend, send to junk mail or voicemail. In extreme cases there may even be a restraining order.
