How does art influence people?

Art has influenced everyone in so many ways. Any type of art, whether it's visual or performing arts, has a very intense and deep effect on people. 
Art has shaped and encouraged thousands of years of society.
It affects each individual in a different way, which makes it the true beauty of art.

Art, whether it's inspired in a theater, museum, gallery or store, often influences people to develop into artists and create art themselves. Art can provide as encouragement to awaken the mind's eye, and bring out the talent and skill hiding in someone. It can release your worries and insecurities about creating and push you toward picking up a paintbrush or a camera. Art can ignite the enthusiasm to create something of beauty and importance. 

Art influences people by inspiring them. Inspiration affects everyone in different ways, but hearing a specific song or seeing a specific carving may regenerate an old memory and encourage someone to reach out to an old friend or lover. Seeing a painting of a distant place once visited may inspire someone to revisit to that destination. Seeing a musical or opera may inspire someone to take up singing lessons so they can sing along with their favorite songs in the car. That's the magical thing about art - everyone experiences it differently, and therefore, it influences everyone differently.
