He was given the name of the artist because of the development and sharpness of his five senses, which often makes him a creative person who sees beauty in tangible things that no one else sees. Personal tendencies: introverted, sensual, emotional, flexible. The artist is one of the artists according to Cressey's theory of moods. The percentage of artists who have this personality, according to a study on a sample of the American population, ranges between (5-9%).
Overview of the artist's personality:
The artist's main state is internal, where he deals with things according to how he feels about them or how they fit into his value system. The secondary state is external, through which he deals with matters and deals with them using his five senses or with the tangible appearance. The artist lives in a world of tangible possibilities, integrating and absorbing the taste, form, taste, smell, and sound of things. He also greatly appreciates the beauty of art and is often an artist in some way, because he has a creative talent for combining and creating things that dazzle the viewer, listener, or taster. He has a set of values that he strives to adhere to and follow in his life. He lives his life according to what he feels is right and will rebel against what contradicts that. He is likely to work in a field that allows him to achieve these personal values and goals.
He tends to be reserved and quiet and is difficult to understand well. And he hides his thoughts and opinions about people, but those close to him. He is often kind, respectful, and sensitive in his dealings with others. The artist tends to help make people feel well-being and happy and will put a lot of effort and energy into any work he believes in. The artist is often in love with beauty and art. He may be an animal lover and appreciate the beauty of nature. He is unconventional and independent and needs to have moments of solitude.
The artist appreciates people who take their time to understand his outlook, and who support him to achieve his goals relying on himself and his way. Those who do not understand him may see his lifestyle as a kind of recklessness or irresponsibility, but in reality, he always takes life seriously, and constantly collects information and transfers it to his value system, and he does this to understand clearly and remove the ambiguity that mars things.
The artist is, by nature, a practical person. He is the implementer. He is usually not comfortable with abstract theories and concepts unless he sees their practical application. Artists learn best when they practice and apply, so it may not be surprising that artists quickly become bored with traditional education systems that focus on abstract thinking. He hates rational analysis devoid of the human side and hates applying or making strict decisions that are based on logic. His strong value system calls him to view and evaluate things based on his own beliefs, rather than using laws and regulations.
The artist is very understanding and aware of others. He constantly collects information about people by looking at their actions and reactions and tries to find meanings for these actions. He is usually right in his view of others.
He is also affectionate and compassionate. He sincerely and honestly cares about people and follows the method of providing assistance and service to please others. He has a lot of love and affection for those close to him, but he is more likely to express this love in action than in words.
The artist does not tend to lead or control others, and to the same extent, he does not like to be led or controlled. This may come from the fact that the artist sees his need for private space and time for solitude in which no one interrupts him, in which he evaluates the situations he is going through and measures them against his value system. He also believes that others deserve this space and solitude.
It is possible that the artist does not see the greatness of the skills and things he masters. His value system calls him in some cases to be a perfectionist, and for this reason, the artist may hold himself accountable to a degree of unnecessary harshness.
The artist has many skills to offer to the world, especially in the field of creating an artistic sense and selflessly providing services to others. Life is often not easy for an artist because he takes his life seriously, but he has many tools that make his life and the lives of others around him full of adventures and rich and wonderful experiences.
The artist as husband/wife:
The artist is a caring and generous person. He has a deep emotion that some may not notice or understand, but it is clear to those who know and understand him. He is a deep human being, and he expresses her affection with the same depth. Although he may be seen as not serious in his relationship, he is very serious about what he undertakes and takes his obligations seriously.
His main problem may be in communication skills. Because his personality is characterized by introversion and his decision-making is based on his emotions, he is more likely to have his feelings hurt. Perhaps for this reason, he always tries to hide a side of himself from others, and always does not speak what he thinks or feels. This especially happens in cases of disagreements and conflicts, which the artist hates more than anything in the world. Confrontation and arguments are difficult for the artist to deal with, as he feels personally threatened in these cases. If the artist acquires the habit of not communicating and expressing his feelings and thoughts with his wife, this may cause major problems in the long run.
The artist needs to hear affirmations of his behavior and to hear expressions of appreciation from his counterpart to feel happy and satisfied with himself. He needs to be praised from time to time, but he hates a lot of praise and flattery and does not feel comfortable. The greatest gift an artist can receive from his wife is an expression of love, appreciation, or admiration.
Although any relationship between people of the 16 typologies may be successful, the artist's natural partner or spouse is the giver (ESFJ) or the teacher (ENFJ).
The Artist as a Parent:
The artist enjoys the role of fatherhood or motherhood and is very proud of his children. In particular, this begins with the care and care of the infant, followed by the formation of a bond and relationship from his children's early years. He is a permissive father and often does not demand high, specific achievements or productivity expectations from his children. He will gently guide the behavior of his children and will suggest that they follow the path that he deems best, but he will not impose his opinion on them and will not be demanding because, by the nature of his personality, he respects their privacy. It is common for an artist to treat his children as individuals and encourage them to fulfill their roles in the family.
The artist loves to enjoy his time and lives in the present moment. It can be said that inside every artist is a young child. The artist would love to have his children participate in playing. His love for the beauty of nature and animals leads him to prefer taking his children to play outside the house and in the fresh air.
An artist is unlikely to create a structured environment for his children. He may also have trouble punishing or disciplining his children. The artist's gentleness and childish heart make it difficult for him to do what might upset others, especially his children. But order and discipline are essential for raising a child. Here, the artist's husband must be considered if he is the type who can impose order and discipline or punish and discipline if necessary. Combining the characteristics of the spouses will help in raising children. But if the husband is not able to carry out these tasks, meaning that neither spouse has the skill to impose discipline or punish the children, then in this case the parents must be careful. Children do not have sufficient experience that qualifies them to make the right decisions or distinguish between right and wrong. They need barriers and guidance to be able to make the right decision.
The artist prefers to express love through actions, not words, and this is represented in much of what the artist does for his children. He will prefer to give them a gift, or take them on a tour or to a place for a picnic, rather than express his feelings to them.
The artist has a serviceable personality, and he evaluates himself by the degree to which he brings happiness to people's hearts. This is the nature of people with emotional personalities. The potential problem with this side of the artist is that he does not express his needs and feelings. All of them make the artist in some cases neither appreciated nor thanked for the services he provides to people. If this happens to an artist repeatedly, it may make him an angry and prejudiced person. Because he sees himself as a victim, he may put up barriers with people who do not appreciate or thank him for his services. This could be a big problem if it occurs between the artist, father or mother, and his children when he feels that his children do not appreciate the efforts and work he does for them. The best solution to avoid this problem is for the artist to try to accustom himself to speaking and requesting his needs.
The artist, father or mother, will be a loyal, devoted, and sacrificial parent to his children until the children become independent. When the children become independent, the artist will be happy to spend time alone and perform the work he loves. His children will remember him with pride and pride.
The artist as a friend:
The artist can understand and get along with most types of personalities, although he prefers to keep a part of himself with people he does not know well. He will greatly enjoy spending time with people who share the same interests as him, and who accept and understand the artist as a person. The artist respects his private space and autonomy and appreciates the respect of others for that as well.
The artist often does not have much patience and tolerance for those who pass judgment on the actions and character of others. The artist knows that he is unique, and every individual is also unique, and therefore he does not prefer to pass judgment on his character or behavior or the character or behavior of others. In the work environment, it is common for the artist to get along with everyone unless someone interferes with his privacy and private space, then a problem may occur.
