Eye scans show that artists tend to look at broader elements of a scene, with less concentration on the center items than ‘regular’ people.I’ve had this argument about how and what artists see as opposed to non-artists.It doesn’t meant that artists are better, just different.
Cognitive Daily: Artists look different
The fact is, I know I don’t see the world the way most people see it. Often, that is a disadvantage. You could even say that an artist is handicapped… sort of.
Like some artists, I don’t necessarily recognize faces all that well. If you didn’t study this, you might think that it would be the opposite, but artists look at a bigger picture, as the article explains
yes, i agree – artists do look BEYOND…….but unlike you, i remember faces ( buggered if i remember your name, and i’m in Human Resources !!!)
i think artists are on a different plain……higher or lower ?????
i wouldn’t say we are handicapped….just notice the un-noticed more often
