The psychology of aesthetics is the study of how a viewer interacts with artworks. The psychology of aesthetics explains why something is liked or disliked, and what concepts people associate with aesthetics (Tinio & Smith, 2014). Aesthetic emotions motivate prolonged and repeated experiences (you never get tired of watching a beautiful sunset). A distinctive feature of aesthetic experience is that it is not goal-directed but focused more upon the activity itself. Individuals with this trait tend to be more intellectually curious, which drives a greater taste for aesthetic experiences.
