An art session in this group is normally very relaxing. This session we went for traditional drawing and sketching, leaving aside the glitter and glue on this occasion (fun though they are!)
Group members spoke about really being able to switch off through art and just be in a different space for a while really focusing on something, hopefully people were also able to enjoy the process without worrying too about the end result and just get absorbed in the creating rather than stress about perfection which can sometimes be a barrier to just getting stuck in. It was nice to see people being able to relax while doing this.
Can only agree that art can be equally expressive, therapeutic and energising. Also great fun in group settings. Ta. Ash.
