The link between ACTING and VISUAL ARTS?
Normandie asked:
Ever realised how these two complement each other and involve much the same talents?
Portraying something by physically performing it and drawing or painting it is much the same skill.
Think about it, why are some of the greatest actors skilled in visual arts? A few examples:
Robert de niro’s father was an abstract expressionist
Jack nicholson offered a job as an animator due to his comic drawing skills
Orlando bloom excelled in visual arts at school
the list goes on and on.
Thoughts?

That’s an easy one. Art is genetic. It ties into itself. Not just visual arts vs. performing arts, but musical art and every other type of artistic creativity. If you have a parent that is artistic, odds are you will be too. It might manifest itself in a different way than with them, but it’s the same genetics, just different offshoots of it. My grandmother is a painter. My father is a sketcher. I’m an actor and a musician. It’s all in the family.
