Makes Me Feel Accomplished

Art has helped me emotionally recover from situations or release how I feel instead of keeping it inside....Since I don't usually have an outlet where I can describe how I'm feeling -- I don't feel comfortable sharing it with family/friends really at all -- I paint abstract art when I am feeling angry, depressed or sad, just to express myself and get rid of the feelings. In this way I think art can save peoples' lives. It can help you if you are a damaged person and make you feel accomplished and able to do something on your own!
