The Health Benefits of Art in Your Home

Art has always held an important place in the world, from Michelangelo’s incredibly beautiful painting in the Sistine Chapel to the somewhat identifiable portrait of the family dog done by your five-year-old using only a blue crayon. It’s a way we as people express ourselves, no matter our age or talent. Art can transcend language and communicate our feelings, even our personality, without the need for words. This is why having art in the home is proven to have wonderful benefits for our mental and emotional well-being. Whether it’s your kid’s drawings on the fridge, a photograph of your favorite city’s skyline, or a ceramic mosaic, art of any kind is going to be good for your mental and emotional health!
