Family, 2018 12” x 15” Acrylic on Canvasboard Intro to Art Therapy, Process Painting
Acrylic paint and canvas board are commonly available art supplies and therefore are staples in art therapy projects. The paint is water soluble, ensuring easy cleanup, and dries quickly allowing for multiple applications in a short amount of time. Painting with acrylic paint encourages movement and creativity while requiring minimal skill. This painting was created over a series of independent sessions, each time paint was added it was reflective of my in-the-moment thoughts and feelings.
