The work of a poet is to convey a message in the form of an image. The visual arts are a form of artistic expression, and therefore can be considered as a form of art. Artworks can be created in different ways - with words, with images, with sounds and so on.
A major issue that affects people living with depression is that they do not have any way to communicate their feelings. They cannot express themselves directly through their art or writings because they feel too embarrassed about it. Therefore, they cannot express themselves fully and directly through their work.
Artists are often asked to make drawings or paintings that represent the moods or emotions they feel when experiencing certain situations such as being depressed or having anxiety attacks. In order to do this, artists need to know how depression manifests itself in various forms such as painters and photographers who portray scenes from daily life (painting) or those who depict emotions (photography).
