Blot Art & Rainbow Future Self

Intro Art Directive: create a blot art painting - what colours catch your eye and what images can you see?

Main Art Directive: Rainbow self-portrait - Draw your future self-portrait with colours that represent who you are

Description:

This art directive allows clients to draw how they see themselves in the future with the skills they have learned throughout our group session.  This activity will help them identify how they would like to perceive themselves in the future in positive aspects. Individuals will talk about colour theory and what colours they seem to represent themselves best.  Using different colours in a “rainbow” formation will help them utilize a spectrum of colours to represent what positive aspects of themselves “shines” through for who they perceive as their future-self.  The Compass for Recovery Theme is Future.
