We spent some time sitting with Daisy during our Chinese New Year session this week. ✨
She had been carefully creating a dragon scale, which will become part of our large collaborative dragon artwork, each person contributing their own scale before we bring it all together later this week. It’s always so special watching individual pieces turn into something shared.
Alongside that, Daisy worked on a painting for the Year of the Horse. She traced the image first, taking her time to get it just right, before using watercolours to carefully bring it to life.
When we asked her what she enjoys most about Cathartic, she said she loves “getting on with art and the people.” That balance of creativity and connection is exactly what these sessions are about.
She also told us she’d learnt that it’s the Year of the Horse, and that she was born in the Year of the Rat, which is known for being great with money, smart and intelligent. We think that sounds about right. ❤️
Moments of learning, pride and creativity all in one afternoon
