Keith Negley’s An Artist at Work comes as a reminder that making art, not just viewing it, enhances mental and spiritual health whether we have artistic talent or not. Many people famous in other fields have turned to painting, music or dance to express themselves, whether they share the results with others or not. Sign up for a class at a community center or school; learn to play the piano or saxophone like you’ve wanted to do for years. Making art changes us, whether we’re good at it or not – and we may discover hidden talents, pleasures and self-awareness. (The New York Times)
