Light, Darkness and Colour in Painting Therapy

Light, Darkness and Colour in Painting Therapy

Editorial Reviews Book Description Through her work as an art teacher, Liane Collot d'Herbois discovered that a person's constitution, temperament, and illness are often revealed through the act of painting. Using Steiner's remarks about color as a starting point-along with her own observations-the author developed her approach to therapeutic painting.

Art therapy helps bring about balance and health in an individual through working with and understanding the relationship between the opposing tendencies of light and darkness, both in art and within the human makeup.

This is an essential guide for understanding the processes involved in therapeutic painting and the use of colors for healing one's body and soul. About the Author Liane Collot d'Herbois was born in 1907 in Cornwall. She studied painting in Birmingham and London. After encountering Rudolf Steiner's work, an important stimulus to her artistic and therapeutic work, she worked with Dr. Ita Wegman to develop an approach to painting therapy. She lives in Holland.
