The day we had our first session as Space2Create

On Friday 4th January the WellArt group met as part of Space2Create at the Abbot Hall Gallery LAB. For a first session in a new place we saw plenty of group members and some new faces. We were working on complicated tangled pictures in the style of the session leader Mat who works under the name JimDogArt. When you have a mental health problem people often describe it being like a complicated barrier and life is a tangle. Drawing out these tangles the group members commented how relaxing it was concentrating on the complexity they were creating.
