Shabs Beigh: Art That Speaks To Us
I recently bought a painting of 2 pomegranates and whilst it might seem like a strange painting to others, it triggers happy memories for me. The last time I saw my dad, he sent my brother to go and find pomegranates — the best quality fruit that my brother could find. The painting reminds me of how much my dad valued us. It is a visual link to our shared taste and standards.
Art brings people together and makes us happy. From young to old, there’s no precedent for who can enjoy it. Artworks affect us all differently depending on our experiences — on a subliminal level, art exposes feelings and emotion.
One of my art clients purchased a seascape painting but asked to pay in instalments. It turns out that she worked part-time, and the artwork she wanted was a full month’s rent. The painting prompted memories of being in New Zealand with an ex-partner, and the amazing time she had.
This morning I was talking to Carrie Starr, a ranch owner from North America, and she said that she has a particular style or art that she searches for — “I choose colourful artwork, because I dread the bleakness of winter. The colours help me get through the winter.”
