Painting is another form of meditation by quieting the mind from negative thoughts. It helps you to express yourself. Painting helps you to release stress and it increases your creativity. In addition, painting is used as art therapy to find a deep understanding of your emotions. The simple act of using paint and a paintbrush can help you feel better and escape from your daily problems.
Furthermore, painting complex designs help the brain to concentrate and make you feel alert. As you paint, you are aware of the textures, the colors, and the structure of how the painting is done. Although painting can be done in different ways, it must invoke a feeling. In addition, making a painting should be fun. Choose a few colors or multiple colors on a blank canvas or paper and not thinking about how the painting will come out in the end.
It helps you to improve your self-esteem. Painting helps you to communicate your hidden emotions. In addition, seeing a painting at a museum can help you to contemplate what the artist wanted to convey. Last, it makes you be aware of your own feelings and thoughts. Here are more resources for painting and meditation.
