Chiluly Gardens & Glass in Seattle

I recently visited Chiluly Gardens & Glass in Seattle. It is remarkably untouched, and I highly recommend visiting it, as soon as you can. It is a very special, fragile place. Seize the moment, when you have it. You won't regret it! Here are a few of my Unsplash photos of the visit.

Art Therapy to Process Emotions

Using the creative art process for helping individuals explore and express their emotions is the objective of art therapy. There are endless possibilities that allow individuals to express their feelings or emotions through art. For instance, playing with the watercolors in a sensory-based activity or creating a family collage may help one explore their feelings which are reflected in their selected images.
