"Art is a place for children to learn to trust their ideas, themselves, and to explore what is possible"
- MaryAnn F.Kohl
Did you know that a child exposed to art can think more creatively, retain their originality, and be more innovative?
Creating art allows children to process their thoughts and cope with their emotions in a safe way, also encourages fine motor skills, neural development, and problem-solving abilities.
At Heartist Art Studio, we specialise in working with children and the elderly with or without disabilities by helping them grow and connect with themselves through art.
But it’s not just children who benefit from art. Art releases dopamine and endorphins—chemicals that help combat stress and pain and simply make you feel good and happy.
That’s why anyone overwhelmed by today’s fast-paced environment can find calm and joy in picking up a brush and sweeping a bold stroke across an empty easel. Creating art is all about the journey, not the destination, forcing you to slow down and focus on the now.
