Humanistic psychologist and therapy art work

Over the last few weeks I have been talking to psychologist when I have been traveling on the trains. My work with the local community and how I work with them I was at a Uni that is firmly in trench with Freud. I have always been a Humanist and I now this work very well with the termly ill it is the only treatment that works when every normal treatment can no longer help. It helps to extents termly ill life by a min. few weeks but used with normal treatment up to over 6 months.My main aim in my practice is to fine out what people like to do. Sometime they do not want to do anything they just want to chat. which is 'cool' but I find they normal do end up doing something.
I call this "Harry Potter Dream Game" this is a good drawing for a person who has not been drawing and the workshop is done so the person doing the drawing well get a good result. I also fine that if a person has un-control- able shacks the more they shack the better their painting is. I will put an example on the website in the next few days.

Hyde Laurdry


I was show the Dog and Flower drawing this drawing was drawn in public and was on showing for 10 day for the public and remained on show for another 7 days for VIPs.
This project was aiming to show the VIPs the local artist need places like the Hyde laundry to work and show the public their art work. It would also be a good way of offering internships.
While I was showing my drawing I also was showing in the toilets and put lot of flowers near the sinks and in the cubical. This was well received by the public. I got the idea from Royal Tunbridge Wells NCP ladies the toilets look just Wisley Garden. My political touch we have toilets in Winchester that are maned and putting flowers in the toilets would be so good for tourist trade. The council will say costs but the flower would be self funding as this is what is done in Royal Tunbridge Wells.

Contempory Tree


This is part of a project I did for my 'A' level. This is a contemporary tree to show the dead trees that are inside of the "A Bomb Dome" in Hiroshima . Which is also known as Peace Memorial for the 230,000 people who died when the A Bomb was dropped.
When I went to the Memorial it left lasting affect with my art and I made two trees one was white for "Life" and one was red wood for the "Death" and to show even after death the trees in Hiroshima still grows life with the radiation on the algae that is 10 to 20 inch long. I also went back to Hiroshima a year later as I did not have any flower with the first time time I went.
I am hoping to use my technique to make my drawing life size, if some one has a small wood they would like copsing.
In the Hampshire area Winchester UK this would be just what I am looking for, I am quite happy to pay a pepper corn rent and let the public see me making my sculptures
