Expressing your emotions thru art

My friend just gone through a really hard divorce. After 15 years of marriage, it all ended just like that. It all started when his wife started seeing another man and got to a point that he saw them sleeping together right at the comfort of their home. It was an accident because his business trip got moved to another day and he had to go home earlier. He was suppose to surprise his wife but he never thought that he will be the one to be surprised.

Their son was devastated. He didn’t speak for a couple of days since the incident happened. It was time that he brought him to a psychiatrist. During their session, he noticed that the boy was scribbling something on paper. That was his way of channeling his emotions. He drew lines and shapes. He colored them with very dark colors.

It was an interpretation of how destroyed the child’s emotions was. Until this time, they are still seeking the help of the psychiatrist but there have been drastic improvements since then. Colors became more lively.
