Ole comments:

I am offering this creative workshop because I believe it is needed in the times we are in. Both for its energizing and healing effects and equally for promoting new perspectives and development in each participant. 

There are good reasons why art therapeutic methods are becoming increasingly popular:

• The time we live in calls for both creative and self healing activities.

• It´s becoming clear in these years that culture and health are interlinked. 

• Work with color, crayons, collage etc. is easy to do at home and it doesn’t demand a lot of equipment.

• It creates in us a fountain of natural joy, feeling of meaningfulness and a sense of “Im ok” and “all is ok”

• It helps you to two important processes : Discharging and charging.

Workshop will consist of very different tasks from the field of therapeutic art which in each their own way will let you explore playfullness, expressivity and the resources needed for going through heavy parts of life.

The inspiration comes partly from Carl Gustav Jungs work and understanding of psychology. The approaches are: Active imagination - an imaginative method to contact our more unconscious parts. Further: creative, emotional and expressive artistic work. 

Each ZOOM session contains a theoretical part with an introduction to the theme of the evening, and the actual art piece and its materials. Then follows the individual working period approx. 1-1,5h. in the middle and finally a reflection part in the group with sharing of works and experiences.

You dont need any particular skills or experience with art to participate.

Participants should prepare themselves by buying:

• A3 paper pad for drawing or water color

• A not-to-small box of oil crayons / color pencils 

• Normal pencils

• and not mandatory: A collection of gouache colors and a palette/disposable plate or other. Brushes. 

• Some kind of notebook for notes, thoughts, feelings etc.
