Vicki Cutts, a support worker with Together: Devon, has been running neuro-graphic art workshops to help people unwind and encourage those who feel less “arty” to create pieces of art (see below).
“We get people to focus on a thought/feeling and use the mood colour wheel to inspire their colour palette. The idea behind our creative sessions is to create a mixed media collage based on all areas of Recovery, with the view to displaying in public spaces, allowing others to learn through art what recovery is like.”
“Hopefully this will open up conversations and encourage others to treat people in recovery differently.”
Thanks to Adam Hart from Together – Devon for these pictures from the North Devon Alpaca-assisted therapy session as part of their Flourish in Nature project. We particularly love the pic on the left – what a shot!
Together – Devon service users shared this incredible art that came from a visit to New Life Horse Care Sanctuary for an art & equine ‘Flourish in Nature’ activity.
