When you create a work of art, you get to firmly grasp the idea of multiple points of view and learn that there’s no real “one way” to do it. There’s no right or wrong way to make art and that’s the beauty of it; Where else in life is there really not a right answer or correct way to do something?

** Learn How To Relax In A Stressful World
We’ve heard so many of our customers tell us how our classes make their day so much better. They come in for a class after a long day at work or running from practice to practice with the kids, and they leave the studio with a smile on their faces and a piece of handmade artwork in their hands.
** It Improves Your Emotional AND Mental Health
Experts have extolled the benefits of art therapy in relieving various psychological ailments, including stress, depression, and anxiety. Painting classes provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where students can pour their energy into their artwork and let go of their tension. Many students also express their emotions through their work, which is highly therapeutic.
** Learn To Express Feelings Without Having To Use Words
This goes along with the mental and emotional health benefits we talked about above.
It’s nice to know that there are other ways of expressing yourself without having to talk about what you’re feeling. While some of us want to sit and talk with a good listener or therapist, many of us keep our feelings bottled up inside. We might not want to bother others with our feelings, or may just not know how to talk about them or what to say;
When you make art, you can express yourself ANY way you want to. Whether it’s a direct visual of how you’re feeling or just a light interpretation of what you want to say, it doesn’t matter… You’re still getting all of those emotions out of your mind and onto a canvas.
