Everything is connected. When drawing, the thinking brain (left side) becomes busy with drawing a pattern: the action of drawing is creating focus, stimulating brain function, and helping with memory as it repeats patterns in the art. At the same time, the creative or intuitive side (right side) is engaged in creative problem solving, opening the intuitive side of the brain and activating more abstract processing. This merging of the logical left and creative right brains can have surprising results--making this the perfect book for anyone looking to break the stress cycle, unblock their creativity, help overcome an emotional or physical stressor in their life, or simply learn the joyful process of creating something for the fun of it.
