Form Drawing and Colouring for Fun, Healing and Wellbeing Fourfold Patterns for Harmonising Body and Soul by Angela Lord

Creative form drawing is a fascinating and  meaningful artistic activity for health and wellbeing. It helps with  focus and is fun. It engages the right brain by getting into the flow of  color, form, and movement. It offers the opportunity for personal  creativity, using stunning, colorful forms to stimulate originality.  Creative form drawing can be energizing and relaxing, calming and  enlivening, and a valuable aid to harmonizing body and soul.
This  first creative form drawing book for adults features fourfold patterns  of increasing challenge, featuring Celtic, Moorish, Native American, and  Buddhist patterns and encourages the development of new forms. The  forms have symmetry—balance between left and right and between above and  below, connecting the center with the periphery while providing  stability and harmony.
Some forms are rhythmic, with patterns that  move in flowing rhythms and lines. Other forms are inspired organically  by nature’s colors and formations. Flowers provide inspiring ideas for  color combinations and new forms. Drawing with line, form, color, and  beauty is a balancing, healing, and enlivening process.
Originally  developed by Rudolf Steiner, creative form drawing is widely used in  Waldorf education to support healthy development and learning of  children of all ages, aiding eye–hand coordination, balance, confident  movement, observation, and drawing skills.
