Colour therapy has become a very important part of art and therapy and is fast taking a ground with many artists.

It is a known fact that every colour evokes a different response from us and also at different times. When we are happy and cheerful a red or orange will increase our happiness and energy where as when we are angry or tired the same red colour may drain our energy and make us irritable. Colour therapy as an art form is a easy and sure way to heal individuals usually suffering from anxiety, relentlessness and other mental and behavioral problems.
How do colour therapists work? usually they offer clients to paint as they wish and use the colours of their choice. Clients are relaxed and have no fear of getting good results from  a painting. By letting their mind  free they heal themselves as well as make an artwork. How do the art therapist analyze your artwork and how do you get healed. Well, using colour is a process of healing and usually a art therapist would suggest a few sittings to heal better. They will observe your strokes and use of choice of colours.
