很榮幸可以再次邀請到 第三空間 Seedsaw Studio 的小蔡老師，跟嚮光樂齡一起完成時下最受歡迎的藝術流動畫！
顏色可以展現我們的內在，小蔡老師引領樂齡從袋子裡隨機選一個顏色，並帶領大家思考「這個顏色代表你的心情嗎 ? 」以及「這個顏色讓你想起什麼呢 ?」，起初，他們都有點猶豫分享自己的感受，也有人表示不知道怎麼畫，這個狀況在年紀較大的兒童和成人之間是很容易遇到的，不過，在嚮光工作坊裡，這情況總能被打破，每個人都擁有創造力喔！

每個人穿好圍裙，躍躍欲試！當他們拿到工具和空白畫布後，整個空間變得安靜無聲，大家都專心地創作自己的作品，直到作品完成後才打破寧靜，看著彼此的傑作，我們都驚嘆連連！
在第一場樂齡培力工作坊之前，我們已經在同一個社區中心擔任志工好幾個月，這是他們第一次在活動後，還留在教室內，熱烈地一起討論成果。
每個人的作品都是獨一無二的，並代表著自己，我們很開心能看見樂齡的熱情，透過藝術，一點一點的表達自己，希望他們能認知到自己是小小藝術家，大家都是獨特且美麗的！
再次感謝 第三空間 Seedsaw Studio 帶給我們美好的時光 ~

Creating a piece of yourself through the expression of fluid art is one of the most popular classes right now and we were so honored to be able to work yet again with Seedsaw Studio to let our older friends experience this for themselves.
We took a slightly different approach in having individuals pick their colors out randomly from a bag Teacher Tsai prepared, leading into discussion whether or not the color represented how they felt today – and also what the color reminded them of. There was some slight hesitation in sharing their thoughts and also some spoke up saying they “don’t know how to draw” which is oftentimes something you hear from older children and adults; also something that by the end of each Bright Side Projects workshop they find out to be untrue.
Once the “messy” part started, everyone tied up their aprons and were eager to get going. We took care into making sure that each individual was able to see and test applications of the paint with different tools on one canvas that became their group work.
When everyone got their own tools and blank canvases, the room became silent as everyone took so much care into the creation of their artworks. The chatter arose again as we heard everyone ooh-ing and aah-ing over each others masterpieces. This was actually Before Bright Side Projects inaugural workshop with our older friends – we have been volunteering for several months at the center prior – and this was the first time that when class ended, everyone stayed afterwards to simply stare at their awesome creations and also to look and discuss everyone else’s work.
Everyone’s masterpiece was unique and also representative of themselves. We loved that their passion and a little of themselves were shown through the stunning artwork and hope that they know not only are we all little artists, but we are all unique and beautiful!
Thank you to Seedsaw Studio!
