(Oxford) Diploma in Art Therapy - learn from the Masters
Art Therapy: Using the artwork of (famous) others to interpret, express, and resolve your emotions and thoughts.
Description
IMPORTANT
If there are low enrolments on this course this means that:
1. This is a very new course
2. I have NOT given away thousands of free coupons to create an impression that huge numbers of students have enrolled
3. Also the majority of those with free coupons never look at any lectures and certainly do not participate in the Q/A!
Now, read on about the course.
This course is in two sections. The first section deals with 10 paintings by famous artists and asks you to work through art therapy exercises specifically designed to apply the artwork supplied. All images are copyright free (they are in the public domain) so you could use this course for yourself and/or use this course to run workshops, retreats, week-end courses etc. The format is the same: Firstly show the paintings (together with a brief description and a link for you to carry out further research) then the art therapy exercise is described and then all the art therapy exercises are included in the manual accompanying this course. you can print them out and use them OR adapt them to suit your own/the needs of others, say in a course you're running
The second part of the course we again look at art work and application through art therapy exercises but this time in greater depth. Artwork considered includes: “No.61 (Rust and Blue)” by Mark Rothko and “Composition VIII” by Wassily Kandinsky
All of the artwork in this course is easily accessible plus (if you so wished) prints are available on the internet. That said, the key to this course is YOU. This is all about application - here are the paintings, here's how they can be used - now you have a go!
And in so doing, you will enjoy the course - and learn about yourself.
