It's been a summer of experiments. Playing with paint blobs, ink dribbles, and glue squirts. Although results may on first glance look similar you'll see results of 2-3 varied processes. They all worked well for mindful exploration of media. I find the process to help connect my clients to their senses and to an abstract representation of behavior/action. Here are some highlights in a photo-essay sort of way (mind you it's my first, so bare with me). Playing around with 'clean' mono printing. I called these "sac" prints because I used garbage bags "sacs" to sandwich the paints. Using this method leaves hands clean and lets the artist feel the paint squishing under their fingertips. You aught to try it! Print taken at the crease of the "sac" and the table gives a mirror effect. Reminiscent of ink blots! Also experimented with laser compatible transparency sheets and glue+india ink+watercolors. The effects were stunn

I am an art therapist and this is yet another exploration. Stretching beyond my comfort zone and reaching out through social media, by means of images and words.
