practical function of art?

answers1: it points us to the philosophical in our own lives and to
that which we want to preserve or change. Art in the making or the
viewing can have an enormous effect just think of the majority of
peasants in the 14th centrury who would never have seen a designed
cornflakes box or a label on a tin. How astounded they would be at the
art within a church the magical pictures depicting the story because
they could no t read - Art practically takes us into ourselves and is
an agent of change through visuals. they say in the press a picture is
worth more than a thousand words.That is because it moves us - changes
attitudes
answers2: Maybe, if that's what you want to do with it. Other
practical functions, graphic designer, book illustrator. Book
illustrator might take some work. Might not be so 'practical' but it
could be, and functionality and purpose; gives understanding to
children and adults, helps them read. Graphic design- ads, help people
to enroll in college, become doctors. Practical? You pick. You can
only succeed in what is interesting to you. If it's not, you won't be
good at it. Any of it takes effort.
