List at least 4 places/content that most often inspire artists. Explain which inspires and draws you the most and why.

Artists often create their works from inspiration. Some places or content that most often inspire artists include a person, ocean, mountains, city. An artist could be inspired by a person through his experiences or his actions. An artist could be inspired by the calmness of the ocean or the serenity of the mountains. Also, they could be inspired by the hasty city where people come and go.

There is no specific place or content an artist could get inspiration from. Sometimes it could be the littlest of things.

Areas of real beauty - this case of inspirational content can most frequently be observed in the work of naturalist-artists, and the impressionists. Large aspects of water such as seas and rivers are especially preferred.

2) Notable others - the notable others of experts have highlighted prominently in art, both in traditional art and more recent works. To see how these people who profoundly affected the lives of others are recreated as a muse is incredibly interesting.

3) Current events - Artists often aim to follow political events or circumstances that are occurring right now in the world, so as to add their own voice and scene into the conversation.

4) Self-portraits - It's always interesting to see how any individual views themselves, especially when their musical talent enables us to see not only their view of themselves but to reconsider how we view ourselves.

Of these four examples of subject matter, I am personally most drawn to art that features events that were/are current.
