IFor the past few months I have been attending a small class at the Ballard Senior Center. Off and on over the years I have attended classes and groups focused on painting. This is the latest. It is a relatively small group of 8 to 12 people, meeting once a week for a couple of hours. It is quite relaxed, and relaxing. A minimum of instruction, but help and guidance is there if you want it.

It’s great that you are doing this. I sommetimes draw and I used to colour mandalas for therapy. As you say, very relaxing.
