Solo artist Diana Varco led an art therapy exercise – Connect Thru Creativity – daily on IG Live @dianavarco during COVID-19 stay-at-home-orders from March 18th to May 15th.
Thank you to everyone who has joined Diana along the way for Connect Thru Creativity – wow, it’s been quite a journey both personally and artistically!
If you missed the journey, feel free to do the exercise on your own or with loved ones!
Just…
Grab a piece of paper and some coloring utensils.
Draw your current thoughts and emotions as if they’re a ‘Weather Report’ (ie: is it sunny in your inner world or cloudy with a chance of rainbows? Are there green tornadoes?)
Draw for as long as you’d like or are able to, then write down the narrative of the picture after.
**No need to stick to just weather, anything goes in your weather report – so draw away! **
Like weather – emotions can change minute by minute or stay for much longer than we’d prefer. They can also be complex and varied. Follow your intuition and draw truthfully from your heart, you might be surprised at what comes out!
