Are there many people engaged in art who have obsessive-compulsive disorder? Why?

I am a patient with very serious obsessive-compulsive disorder, but I think it is not necessarily a bad thing to have obsessive-compulsive disorder, but it feels good.

I majored in Chinese painting, and Xuan paper in pen, ink, paper and inkstone is the most likely to cause fire. Because the materials used to make rice paper are flammable, the rice paper made is easier to ignite. Rice paper is cotton, thin and flammable, and it is easy to cause fire when exposed to open fire.

I started to transfer to Chinese painting in the 197s, and it has been nearly 5 years since summer turned to winter. It is self-evident that there are hardships in this process.

Many people who paint are addicted to alcohol and tobacco, and I am one of these people.

In the study of Chinese painting in the past 5 years, as far as I can remember, there should be at least two fires in the studio. The first time seems to be in the 199s, because the studio was hot in summer and frozen to death in winter, a piece of paper froze without drawing a few strokes. So in winter, we will get a stove in the studio, one for heating and the other for painting better. I accidentally caught fire when I was building a stove. At that time, the fire head jumped out very high, but fortunately, I doused it with a bucket of water. Because the house is dry and just in case, I usually like the habit of putting a bucket of water by the door. I've been careful since the fire. The second fire was two years ago, when I came back from a party with friends, I accidentally kicked down two bottles of wine, one of which was rotten. While the wine was strong, the lighter was lit, and the fire head immediately jumped out of the sky, and the wine strength immediately dropped to zero. Put out the fire immediately, otherwise things would be big. This fire is the fuse of my obsessive-compulsive disorder, which gives me a clear understanding and adds pressure to my heart.

Because the cigarette never leaves my hand, there are many small holes in my clothes and felt, and I have a habit of walking around with a cigarette in my mouth, so my head is often tense. I often go downstairs and climb up to the sixth floor studio to check it out. Because of obsessive-compulsive disorder, every time I leave the studio, I will check the power supply and ashtray. I don't feel at ease after pouring water. I have to put the ashtray on the untouched ground around me before I go out in doubt. I have developed a habit for many years.

I attached ten albums of landscapes and flowers and birds that I drew during the epidemic period, and selected nine simple flower-and-bird works for appreciation.

I understand that "obsessive-compulsive disorder" mentioned here means forcing myself to do something, accomplish something and do something well, and compulsion becomes a "disease", that is, compulsion becomes a normal state. If "obsessive-compulsive disorder" is an occupational disease of artists, it may be too much, but it cannot be denied that there are still many people engaged in art, especially artists and masters.

For example, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael, the "three great painters" of Italian Renaissance painting, all have serious obsessive-compulsive disorder. Leonardo da Vinci forced himself to dissect the body of Si for many times in order to really understand the structure and organization of human bones and muscles. When Michelangelo created Genesis, a large-scale wall painting in the Sistine Chapel, he bent down on a wooden frame more than ten meters high and painted his face for more than four years. Without obsessive-compulsive disorder, he really couldn't finish this job. Raphael paints day and night, sleeping only four or five hours a day.

The Sleeping Venus is the last painting by giorgione, a representative painter of the Venetian School. Halfway through the painting, giorgione was seriously ill, but he still gritted his teeth and insisted on finishing the painting until he couldn't afford the brush. (The background part of this painting was added by my classmate Titian after giorgione's death.).

Matisse, the founder of Fauvism, was seriously ill at the age of 72. After his recovery, his weak body was no longer competent for easel painting, but he couldn't help himself, took a liking to paper-cutting art again, and later made good achievements in paper-cutting. Why do people engaged in art get obsessive-compulsive disorder easily? First, because of the charm of art, art makes people crazy, and I forget it. Second, because of the artist's love and pursuit of art. If you want to make a breakthrough in art, make innovations and make achievements, it is almost impossible to follow the conventional step-by-step work mode. Many times, artists must devote themselves to artistic creation.

Of course, "obsessive-compulsive disorder" is willing and positive for people engaged in art.

There are not many people who are engaged in art who have obsessive-compulsive disorder. People with artistic obsessive-compulsive disorder have the potential to become artists.

Because to pursue art to the extreme, not everyone can do it, and there are few people who are obsessed with art and wood. For example, Beethoven insisted on composing music when his ears were missing, and he would not bow to difficulties; Van Gogh believes that painting can't just be satisfied with imitating the external image of things ... but should express the artist's subjective opinions and emotions while depicting nature by feeling and truth, so that the works have personality and unique style. Van Gogh said: "When it comes to my career, I gave my life for it, because of it, my reason has almost collapsed." Today, Van Gogh has become a world-famous master of art. Van Gogh is a master of painting with his mind. He said: "My work is my body and soul. For it, I am willing to risk losing my life and reason."

at the age of 7, Wang Xizhi practiced calligraphy and was diligent and eager to learn. At the age of 17, he stole his father's previous calligraphy works and read them. When he was ripe, he practiced writing. Every day, he sat by the pool and practiced writing, seeing off the dusk and welcoming the dawn, and finished writing more or less ink. After writing more or less rotten brush heads, he washed his pens in the pool water every day, and for a long time, he washed all the water into ink.

Therefore, if a person engaged in art has no obsessive-compulsive disorder, fishing for three days and fishing for two days, and has not perfected art, he will not surpass his predecessors, have his own artistic achievements, remain immortal and become a master of art. There is only a thin line between cleverness and stupidity. To be obsessed with love, to be able to withstand loneliness, to have no distractions, and to be born for art.

Personally, people who are engaged in art may not have obsessive-compulsive disorder, and people with obsessive-compulsive disorder may not be workers engaged in art.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder should be related to personal personality, living environment and work factors.

I believe that most people engaged in art are pursuing perfection; But art itself is endless; Therefore, people engaged in art-related activities are bound to pursue artistic perfection. But it is not necessarily related to obsessive-compulsive disorder.

For example, Chinese painting, which incorporates China's philosophy and aesthetic spirit, is an art of doing good. When I paint, I never force myself, but rely on my feelings. I try my best to express my feelings through pen and ink. If I have the artistic conception, it will be right. Too much modification will backfire.

Excellence is the pursuit and ideal of every artist. Just accept it slowly. Don't be too persistent.

there must be a lot.

And if you think about it carefully, there are many smelly problems from those artists to artists, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder, cleanliness addiction and so on.

Because of their constant pursuit of perfection on the artistic road, ordinary people think that such people are more self-centered.

I am engaged in artistic creation, and I am a "proper" artist. The reason why I am "proper" is that I feel a little obsessive-compulsive because of art.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder, which sounds strange, refers to patients and mentally ill people. It is not surprising that people who work in the arts have obsessive-compulsive disorder!

the first cause of obsessive-compulsive disorder: art is a creative work, and artistic creation emphasizes the use of full emotions to create distinctive artistic works. It can be seen that art is an art that properly expresses itself, with strong subjective desire, and shows the creator's thoughts and ideas in a self-righteous, free-wheeling way. Engaged in artistic work for a long time, artists can't help but get obsessive-compulsive symptoms.

The second cause of obsessive-compulsive disorder: interest and personality. People who are engaged in art love art, which is their interest. However, when people who are exposed and flamboyant meet art, such as dry wood and fire, they often say that people with unrestrained personality are good at expression, and art is the art of expression. People with unrestrained personality are most suitable for art. Of course, people with such personality are most likely to get into obsessive-compulsive disorder.

I dare not judge how many people who are engaged in art work suffer from obsessive-compulsive disorder, but there is a saying in my heart: the heart is a general and the hand is a soldier! What the heart thinks, what the hand does, thinking here is artistic conception, and doing here is artistic creation. It is obsessive-compulsive disorder to engage in art according to one's own thoughts and exclude all other interferences.

There is no necessary causal relationship between obsessive-compulsive disorder and people engaged in art. Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a common mental disorder. The patient is characterized by conscious self-compulsion and anti-compulsion. Mainly compulsive ideas and behaviors. For example, some problems will be pondered repeatedly, and some actions will be repeated repeatedly, which can't be self-controlled. For example, patients can repeatedly clean certain behaviors, such as being afraid of dirt and infectious diseases. As long as they encounter dirty things, they can take a bath for more than an hour, and washing their hands can occur dozens of times a day, which is a repetition of excessive cleaning. Sometimes the same words are repeated for no reason. Repeatedly thinking about some problems that are meaningless or meaningful but not difficult to solve, people with obsessive-compulsive disorder are also deeply suffering. They know that these repetitions are meaningless, but they can't control themselves. This situation will seriously affect their normal life and mood, and many people can't live and work normally. Most people engaged in art are delicate and sensitive. In the eyes of ordinary people, the world of people engaged in art may be more melodramatic. They should constantly think and create works of art and present their lives to ordinary people through artistic processing. They will not only be satisfied with the noise and vulgarity of ordinary life, but refining beauty is the real sublimation of their lives. Of course, this is a real artist rather than a pseudo-artist. Artistic creation is very brain-burning. In the process of brain-burning, they will have many moments of emotional explosion, which is very strange to people.

no, art will inevitably not be flawed, and the more perfect it is, the less perfect it is, just like life is inevitably regrettable.
