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.

I am sure that many other writers will be able to agree with such a sentiment. Keep in mind that many new college students do not have large groups of friends; many students may not be able to make friends even after time has passed. However, writing does something that not every activity can. It is able to bring people together, regardless of their social skills, and it allows them to meet like-minded people they probably wouldn't have encountered otherwise.

Writing can be integrated into just about any industry that requires those particular skills. What this means is that it is possible for potential workers to integrate themselves in various companies before they provide the best services imaginable. However, it would be a lie to say that this is all that writing does. For many, writing serves as a gateway of communication, meaning that those who aren't the most social can find value in it all the same.
