Art Well
Frances Mezzetti is a Visual Artist and director of Art Well. Art Well provides a link between creative expression, and optimum health, with individual and collaborative body based art expression. We believe in the innate creativity in each human being. We believe that by encouragement, support and dedication to self-care and reflection each person can reach their full potential.
Art Well, offers tools and techniques for self-healing through creativity. The process involves relaxation and meditation with focusing on the breath. Our aim is to generate an atmosphere where self-compassion and gentle steps encourage dreams to manifest. The dreamer within finds an outlet to create with awareness in movement, free style painting, drawing, writing in a combination that is suited to individual and group needs. No art experience is required. Art Well, and with it’s team of associates opens up possibilities for a fulfilling life experience.
