Many of you many have seen these coloring books around in shops and garden centers. 'Therapy doodling or coloring ' The inside covers promise that by coloring you can alleviate stress and calm down - almost like a form of meditation. It helps to relax you. Now this got me thinking - how on earth does art help with calming people down? what is it? I am also aware people use art therapy to help people with mental disorders and illnesses. I would like to find out more about these processes and how they work. I took these photos myself while out and about and I will continue to try to provide first hand research as well as second hand. I will also include visual experiments into different types of art therapy research.
