Interested in learning ten ways toward inspiration? Look no further!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Visit <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bsu.edu\/doma\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>DOMA<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The David Owsley Museum of Art is located at 2021 W. Riverside Avenue in Muncie, Indiana. The museum houses over 11,000 works of art from all seven continents and&nbsp;features special exhibitions during the academic year. There are two entrances to the museum: one located in the Quad and the other directly off Riverside Avenue.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Visit Minnetrista<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in looking at art but want to venture off Ball State&#8217;s campus, the closest museum is Minnetrista, specifically, the Bob Ross experience. The Bob Ross experience is an hour-long, self-guided tour costing $8 for residents with a local address. There, you can see where Bob Ross filmed his painting process, read old letters viewers sent to him, sit in an 80s-themed living room, and walk through an art gallery of his work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Indulge in Arts and Crafts<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you creative at heart? If you&#8217;d rather be an artist then look at them, then indulge in the art of your choice, whether that be knitting, crocheting, painting, fashion design or more.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Find Art in Nature<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sit outside (or in front of your window) and see what aspects of art you can find in nature. Do the sharp lines on the falling leaves remind you of an abstract painting? Do the grooves on the tree make you think of paint strokes against a canvas?&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Enroll in a Virtual Art Class<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re more interested in virtual artistic opportunities, there are still ways for you to indulge in a creative way. If you&#8217;re a Ball State student or faculty member, you have access to Udemy Business, a learning platform with topics ranging from business to communication, to art. There are classes about basic artistic skills, shading, digital art and character drawing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Visit a Virtual Art Gallery<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the constraints of the COVID-19 pandemic, museums have had to get creative on how to visit their galleries during lock down. Fortunately, there are still virtual galleries open for you to visit online. <a href=\"https:\/\/artsandculture.google.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Google Arts and Culture<\/a> provides virtual galleries, a weekly newsletter and information about different artists.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Explore Your Digital Skills<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re a Ball State student, you have access to a free subscription to the Adobe Creative Cloud that you can request access for through the Tech Center in Bracken Library. If not, there are free graphic design programs online like Canva and Figma with no extra cost to you.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Engage in Ekphrasis<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ekphrasis is a way to blend writing and art. This can be shown through painting, writing, sculptures and more. Sit down for five minutes and stare at a piece of artwork. What words are coming to mind? What do you feel? Exercise your ekphrasis skills and engage with the art. Interested in learning more about ekphrasis?
