In my opinion, painting a picture is one of the best ways to destress. I’m not even good at painting, but there’s something about it that calms me down and makes me forget about what I was stressing over. Here’s why I love painting during stressful times:

 

1. The feeling of finishing a painting is so rewarding.

 

2. You can express and let out your emotions through painting. 

 

3. It helps my mind relax if I’m overthinking or stressing over something.

 

4. Painting often will help you improve your skills, and who doesn’t want to be a good artist?

 

If you need a study break this finals week, keep painting in mind!
