Yet, if you are clever (or lucky) and manage to buy property in a neighbourhood that is going to undergo redevelopment or gentrification, you could see a rapid boost in your investment. The initial investment increase will be heavily reliant on speculation, but most investments always are. You will be able to estimate how much of an increase you might experience throughout the next five years after the initial speculation starts to flow in.

The wiser move would be to sell during the speculative period because real estate is such a long-term investment. You’ll be able to turn a profit, and you may then either use that money to pleasure yourself or instantly reinvest it somewhere else. Nonetheless, I would advise reinvesting money and starting the procedure from scratch.

You can be the first to enquire about property that is worth more than you could pay for it because many other property owners in the neighbourhood sometimes aren’t aware that speculating and enquiries have started.

One of the most amazing things in the world is the production of sculptures all around the world, regardless of the materials used. Great sculptures like the figure of David in Florence have produced some obviously beautiful works of art, but there are other kinds of sculptures that do not receive as much attention. This includes ice sculptures, which are among the most incredible works of art. The majority of the time-consuming ice sculptures that have been made will likely never be seen again because they have either entirely melted or have already started to do so. Some may have been kept in a freezer somewhere, but the most have long since vanished. When you consider how stunning some of those statues would have been, this is tragic.

Paintings and murals are the most evident and stunning kind of art that have been produced over the years. There have been countless incredible murals and paintings conceived and produced over the years, all of them were the work of painters with original ideas. A painting may appear to some people to be nothing more than a few different paint colours brushed together to create a picture that only has meaning for the artist, but there is beauty even in that.

Part of the appeal of any art form, but particularly that of paintings, which may be as expressive as they are un expressionistic, is the ability to place oneself in the artist’s position and frame of mind and understand what he or she intended to create and portray.

One of life’s simplest yet most exquisite joys that we hardly ever get to enjoy is art. True, every day we can see a few photos and reprinted images of paintings, but we rarely get to witness the most exquisite works of art from around the globe. You can definitely name a few monuments or structures, but when was the last time you went looking for one? Do you even recall the last time you made a meaningful effort to visit a relatively well-known painting or other work of art? We all take these things for granted, so there’s a good probability that you cannot.

Professional dance is one of the arts that I find to be somewhat boring. I don’t mean ballet dancing because I understand the artistic merit of it. I can also appreciate the artistic intent behind some dances, but there are some dance groups—I won’t mention names—that I find difficult to comprehend. Although some of it is incredibly athletic and looks great for a performance because there are so many flips and other tricks, I don’t really get the appeal of it as a dance and don’t find it to be all that interesting to watch. In its own right, athleticism is cool and entertaining to watch, but turning a lot of flips into dance is not the same thing.

I find it difficult to accept that this kind of dancing or many dance moves in general are considered to be works of art. I am aware that, in many instances, it is a means of expressing feelings or emotions, but the mere act of expression itself should not qualify something as art. If that is the fundamental standard for what constitutes art, then everyone shouting or screaming in the middle of the street to express themselves might be deemed art in some way but why not just get a baby comforter toy instead? For certain dance groups in the UK, it is also a form where it is difficult to tell what is simply athletics and what is especially a dance motion.

Slam poetry and impassioned readings are not art forms in my opinion either. The reading of a poem or combination of lines in a particular way to sound emotional or “intimidating” is not art in any sense, despite the fact that this is far more specific. Just reading a poem will do. Poems are an art form because they allow you to eloquently describe a particular memory, feeling, or landscape; everything added on top merely adds to the complexity. The actual issue is not how you utter the words, but rather the meaning that they convey.

That may come across as a bit nasty or dismissive, but I find it difficult to accept that they are creative forms. They simply aren’t as good at telling stories or expressing emotion as other forms of art are. Additionally, I believe that many of them are simply “evolved” versions of simpler forms of other arts. Nevertheless, thanks for reading today’s post, and please check back soon for more!

Other times, stand-up comedians are skilled at dissecting the most routine events that you encounter or witness every day and offer a wholly original perspective on those events that you could never have thought of, altering your entire perspective on that incident or, in some cases, your outlook on life. Despite how adept some comedians are at observation, it is a very refined art form that has fallen seriously short of recognition.

Bill Burr is one of my favourite stand-up comedians, and I truly like seeing him. Even if it’s something smaller, like just listening to the way he talks about relationships, you can tell that he has experienced the same things you have in the past but he has picked apart a few things that you haven’t seen yourself. He has a really perceptive view on so many things in life that are very common for anyone to see. In spite of the fact that many people, including myself, find the most banal topics to be pointless like an inflatable bath pillow, he is able to make you see things from his point of view once he starts talking about them.

Another comedian who is funny and is close to the same as Bill Burr is Louis CK. You can see so many of his jokes or things that he has written online so if you are ever bored one day or you would like to see what I am talking about, I would advise you to check out some of the jokes he has made. Some of them are good and while a lot of people can find some of the jokes that he makes vile and offensive like the joke about child molesters, they come from a place that is clearly only humorous but there is a sense of being able to understand exactly what he means by what he says. 

By the time you read this blog post, a comedian who was sadly underestimated will have passed away. One of the funniest people I have ever encountered in my life—and possibly the funniest person to ever set foot on Earth—was Patrice O’neal. While you might not enjoy his stand-up comedy special, you can listen to thousands of hours of his audio on radio broadcasts, which really highlights how brilliant this man was. He was primarily interested in relationships, and his serious approach to comedy is evident in every single one of his jokes. He based his work primarily on personal experiences, and it shows.

Then there are some musicians with what appears to be little to no actual singing talent, such as Jessica Simpson or the actress who played Hannah Montana in the past. The fact that so many musicians these days don’t appear to write the lyrics themselves bothers me greatly, as it eliminates half the beauty of what art is. When you aren’t even expressing your own thoughts or emotions but rather singing along to a group of writers’ thoughts and emotions, how can you assert that you are an artist?

It’s hard for me to truly appreciate people who call themselves artists but aren’t prepared to examine and articulate who they are. When you consider all the great painters throughout history, a lot of their work was inspired by their ability to convey particular feelings about how they felt, or their thoughts towards a subject or current event. When it comes to music, it is quite obvious to the audience if you are unable to convey your true thoughts regarding the song you are singing or the lyrics that you are singing to.

We recognise when a song’s melody was clearly not written by you, but rather by a team of sound engineers and people with a true ear for music rather than yourself, and we are aware that you don’t sincerely believe what you are singing about. Taking credit for someone else’s work particularly hurts aspiring talents who are regrettably being neglected.

Although this may only seem to be critical of the music industry, there are actually many people that you might classify as true artists. David Bowie is one of those musicians, to provide an example. You know that he actually spent the time writing all the lyrics and hearing every variant of the song itself, even though it is obvious that he did not develop every single instrumental to his songs or play the piano and keyboards personally. In contrast to many artists nowadays who write songs after hearing the instrumental, you could also see that he had an idea of how he wanted the song to sound rather than just creating the song and the words to the melody that he had been provided.

Prince is another individual who might be categorised as an artist since you can see that he not only created the lyrics to all of his songs but also put a lot of thought and effort into the instruments. Because of how talented and dedicated both artists were to their job rather than just doing it for the money and fame, they will both always be recognised as legends.

Given the numerous possible furniture and colour combinations, it might seem absurd to some, but I think interior design is a distinct art form in and of itself. There are countless items that can be used for décor, including paintings, rugs, statues, and other functional things like these toddler bean bag chairs, and a huge range of colours that can be used in them.

You could even make your own furniture if you want to become a painter or paint as a pastime. Regardless of what you choose to paint, some people would love to receive a free painting, as absurd as that may sound. Painting becomes a vital ability if the homeowner or perhaps you would like to hang the piece in your own home. You could also describe yourself as an artist if your work is on display in a private residence, which is very astonishing when you stop to think about it.

As a painter and decorator, I have collaborated with numerous individuals in the Newcastle region and I love it when it comes to allowing employees to express their creativity. They adore it when you paint a mural or painting on a loft wall because it is simple to cover up if the buyer doesn’t like it.

The majority of people on the planet will never visit any of the many different nations, cities, or villages that make up the world. It’s almost depressing to consider all of the creatures, structures, patches of grass or sand, numerous lakes and rivers, and even seas that the majority of people will never see.

Asia is one of my favourite places to travel because there are so many villages and historical sites there. I particularly enjoy going to the “Golden Triangle” region. No matter how many times I’ve seen it, I still enjoy visiting the various ruins, statues, and even natural landmarks that have been built over the years. Particularly Thailand, the scenery in the golden triangle is beautiful. The entire nation is Asian in culture, but because of the large number of expats and domestic tourists, it also seems to have a strong western influence.

While touring the nation, it seemed obvious that everyone knows that most tourists only come to see the country as a tourist attraction. However, because most people live in poverty, they make every effort to exploit this fact in order to make as much money as they can.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo is a different nation that I adore travelling to, but for very different reasons. I understand why most people would find this a strange choice, but there is a particular aspect of the DR Congo that I adore. You can expect to see the biggest lightning storm on a yearly basis. Though the lightning storm that is triggered is amazing, I would love to understand the science and history that underlies it one day. You can see why it would be terrifying for many people as well.

Lightning is strangely a natural phenomenon that I have always loved both as a kid and as an adult, because every year it manages to have some type of thunder and lightning storm, no matter where in the world I am at.

Last but not least, England is the nation that I will always love the most and believe still has much to be discovered. Being a global melting pot of cultures, England has everything to offer, especially in London. London is one of the world’s largest cities, and once you visit, you’ll understand why. London is a wonderful city, and there are many different neighbourhoods you can explore that have influenced the city’s culture. This typically indicates that the local culture has benefited from the contributions made by the migrants who had settled there. There are places designated specifically for people from eastern Europe, others for people from north Africa, and so on.

This is something I find very cool, and it also means that if you are from London, you will experience a natural affluence to other cultures. It also means that if you are from London, you will naturally be affluent in other cultures, which I think is very cool.

I don’t know why, but I think it has to do with the relative lack of force or impact compared to the rest of Europe, like Germany and England itself. Wales does not have any famous landmarks like Rome or Venice, nor does it have a sizable population or strong economy. Instead, it is merely a small nation that strives to maintain the happiness of its own people while ensuring that those living there are content with their lives.

If you are the kind of person who simply appreciates the outdoors and natural surroundings, Wales is a lovely place. The rolling hills there look beautiful when reflected in a black vanity mirror. While there aren’t any breathtaking waterfalls, miles-long rivers, or enormous mountains. Instead, the majority of the land is flat and grassy, and when people think of Wales, they typically picture sheep and lambs in a field. Though it’s obviously not entirely accurate, that describes the nation fairly well.

The nation itself is not remarkable for the reasons you might think other nations are, like the cities or wonders you can only see there. In fact, you could find the same wonders in a lot of other nations. Even though the difference is negligible, you can tell why when you are in that field.

Half of the country’s particular beauty can be attributed to its overall earthiness, or even muckiness, as some might say. One of the things you notice right away if you’ve ever driven cross-country through Wales is how frequently it can be rainy and foggy. However, this is not always a bad thing. Depending on where you are, the country is very calming and you truly get the feeling that you are breathing in the country air while you are there. Every city in the nation has its own distinctive style, and despite appearing more modern than you might anticipate, they have all maintained a strong connection to their local heritage.

One of the more interesting things about Wales is the weather. It is not a tropical island but rather more like Scotland. It is very wet and windy most times throughout the year, and it can get very cold depending on where you are living. The defining thing about the weather itself however is how much it helps keep the look of the land, while also helping extremely with the decorations that are handmade.

Wales makes your life much easier when it comes to maintaining your fauna and flora if you are an avid gardener or have a green thumb. Many flowers and plants that are grown by home owners within the country see a steady dosage of water and sun.

While I would love to go into more depth about Wales, I believe that in order to truly appreciate its natural beauty, you must immerse yourself there. I urge anyone who hasn’t been to Wales yet to do so and experience it for themselves.
