the therapeutic setting

I spend more time looking for artwork to hang in my future office than beefing up my resume to get that imagined office.



There's a lot of literature to be read on different ideas of what makes the most therapeutic setting. For example, creating a safe and comfortable place for people who are dealing with trauma. There are opinions about having paintings of nature that don't show people and maybe a little plug-in waterfall. I like these face paintings. Sure they show human emotion, but... isn't that why we'd be there anyway?

I really like this painting, but what I think I like most is that you can do I Spy with it like, "I Spy with my little eye, the hot dog dressed with ketchup." Also, I hate it when people spell ketchup, "catsup."
