Good morning everybody and I hope you are staying as well and warm as you can be during these strange times. Normally, you would find me in the 'ask a disabled student advisor' but I thought some of you might like our new art activity. Even though this activity was deigned for children, I think most of us could have a try. I think I might have a go at this myself. It would be great if some of you could post your shadow creations on our STAART ART Facebook page. the more random the object you draw, the more interesting the picture. It could also show your ingenuity as many households do not have white A4 paper or pens. Envelopes and make-up might work


You can post your creations here:

There are no prizes as this is not a competition, just for fun. Our next prize competition will be throughout April - Easter Eggs

    That’s brilliant! I’m looking to organise an online life drawing competition, do you think there would be any interest?

    Good afternoon everybody and apologies for the group reply - I cannot work out how to respond to your individual messages.

    @Tom70 You are very welcome to advertise/display the life competition on our STAART ART page.

    @Sparklebright62 I found this link on the National Careers Service website about different routes into becoming an art therapist Art therapist | Explore careers | National Careers Service
