Sorry -- I didn't mean officially to host. I meant maybe I could start an Emotions Anonymous thread here, is all. Thanks for your most recent post. I have developed art to a certain extent since art therapy. I just feel inadequate, partially because my apartment is so small and it's a huge hassle to set up for watercolor painting. I did that for 2 years and got pretty good, but not good enough to really suit my personal standards. I'm told my personal standards are too high. I'd like to get into less realistic type painting, and that is what the Art Therapist and I will be discussing. My b/f is a professional artist. We like to draw together. That always makes me feel good! We went out into Nature yesterday -- probably the last time before Spring -- and drew trees and the river. Fun! We like to do abstract collages, and we can do that this winter.
