Art really does change everything! The benefits of art in decorating have long been known... After all, adding an artwork is one of the easiest and proven ways to transform a room. But did you know that adding a piece of coastal inspired artwork has health benefits too.
Our research shows that our health, mood and overall wellbeing can benefit from a carefully chosen artwork.
If this really is the case, there is no doubt that medical practices and hospitals in particular should be investing in beautiful and calming artwork. But for the rest of us, why not incorporate a little healing power at home....

THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF ART
Art makes you healthier
According to Koenraad Cuypers, a researcher at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, the study discovered that there was a definite correlation between participating in art gallery viewings and having increased rates of good health, satisfaction with one’s life, and lower rates of anxiety and depression in both men and women.

Art improves thinking and empathy
A study published by the University of Arkansas in 2014 determined the impact of students taking a trip to an art museum, showing that the visit changed how the students thought and felt for the better after viewing artworks.
Students also displayed improved critical thinking skills as well as gains in tolerance and empathy following the trip.
