I was medically detained again, for a week, under equanimous & non-emergency circumstances : (; we had access to a sizeable batch of Crayola crayons & periodically markers. Here’s one drawing. I’ll share more in this post or others, pending audience receptivity. I gave ~60 drawings away to another patient who said the colors relaxed him some, and he needed relaxation a lot.

      Awesome. I added a couple, exhibiting the different Crayola color-set. I’m inspired by guitar playing in punk music - the simple three-string “power chord” shape that can be repositioned on the guitar neck to produce chords.

    I could see these being really helpful to someone with sensory stressors. A way to have some artwork that is simple and uniform, with minimal chaos, but still movement.
