I’ve frequently seen people baffled by how good it feels when they start playing with paint. They become mesmerised as they watch images and colours emerge out of nothing. Their exploration begins to transcends the bounds of time as they let go of their ‘adult’ constraints.

When they give themselves the luxury of of rediscovering joy and wonder, there is a sense of delight as they explore a part of themselves that lights up their life.

Painting does this because it bridges imagination with reality.
