what I read was that unless Pablo P was in a relationship, he didn't do
any work, instead drank. THere was a book on creativity and famous
artists that I read when I was in graduate school. I am an art
therapist and can understand all of the posts on creativity and mental
illness/health. If any of you are troubled and have unresolved issues
it would benefit you greatly to draw, paint, write to express your mind
and work thru it. If there is an art therapist in your area they are
the only ones who can understand the images in your creativity and guide
you thru understanding them and growing from it. I've worked as an art
therapist for over ten years and have worked with many artists, they of
course are my favorite clients, most willing to draw etc. I think it
was Picasso that said Art washes away the dust from everyday life, I
agree so much. I always have believed that it is my art work that keeps
me balanced, when I stray from it I am moody and well, you know the "B"
word.
Do a search on art therapy and you will understand more, its a
fascinating field. I cannot imagine being a therapist and not using
art materials for non-verbal communication.
