The Arts in The Dabbling Mum

An eMagazine dedicated to the arts: art book reviews, artist interviews, and art tutorials dedicated to creating art that heals. And if you explore the rest of the site, you'll discover how to improve your writing skills so you can submit your art tutorials to paying publications, or how to develop business skills so you can sell your art online.

Crafty Tip
Art and crafts projects can be very healing. As you create, you intuitively work through emotions--dark colors often reflect struggles while bright colors often reflect happier times, and successfully creating a difficult craft builds self-esteem. Then there's the added benefit of sharing the craft with others. Whether you hand deliver the craft to a friend in need, or share pictures with a tutorial online, there's nothing more healing or satisfying than creating with your hands--and your mind.
