25.01.2022 Hands down my favourite part of this project. Enveloping the hand-written messages from one group of students so they are ready to be delivered to the next group.

20.01.2022 What little monsters are omnomnom-ing away at your brain space?? This is a fabulous way to get your little problems out of your brain and to have a good laugh at them. ... A light-hearted, fun activity that you can do without an art therapist present. And so great with children! Laughter is medicine and a sense of humour is one of the greatest tools to help us get through difficult times. Get some friends together (or whoever you live with). Each pick an issue that has presently been bothering you and sits at a 1-3 on a problem scale of 1-10 (this is important). In your head, imagine what this issue would look like if it were a monster! Divide your paper into thirds. Draw your monsters head, fold the paper backwards, and pass the paper to the person on your left. Draw your monsters torso, fold paper backwards, pass the paper again. Draw your monsters legs, and reveal your monsters to each other! Giggle. What are you doing to keep your sense of humour alive during this time? #artandwellbeing #laugh #laughteristhebestmedicine #creative #creativearts #artismedicine #senseofhumor #art #creativeexpression #expressyourself #isolation #isolationcreation #isolationactivities #friends #family #monsters #silly #fun #activityforkids

17.01.2022 via @nudi13 Relevant! Times of change call for a re-prioritisation of our needs and redistribution of inner and outer resources. (And a sense of humour!)

09.01.2022 The great artist Hundertwasser had the idea that every person should be allowed to design the space around their apartment window, decorating the exterior of their apartment so others could get an idea of who lived there. How would you decorate the outside of your window to show your unique individuality? What about you makes you different to others? What shape window would you choose? Of course, there are always the similarities and threads of commonality!

06.01.2022 A woven landscape of your favourite place in nature... ....Can you guess where mine is? Greys and browns and leafy greens splashed with the yellow and purple of spring wildflowers.

03.01.2022 There are very important differences between art therapy and an art class !! Education and the spread of awareness about these fundamental differences will help people to make informed choices about their personal mental health and creative journeys, as well as preserving the integrity of art therapy practice. Here's a useful, simple resource that covers the basics ... ...although I would argue that art therapy goes much further beyond 'self expression' ! See more
