A.R.T. by Open Arms Care Nashville - Artistic Realization Technologies (A.R.T.) allows Open Arms Care clients, many of whom are not able to speak, walk, or hold a paint brush, to assume control of the creative process! They do this by communicating with their tracker (the person manipulating the paint brushes and paint) through utilization of a variety of techniques such as nodding, blinking their eyes, and laser pointer. The clients communicate with the trackers so that the paint is placed on the canvas as they desire. The results are incredible and must be seen to be believed! The finished pieces are beautifully framed in hand-built, smoothly birch illusion frames and are ready for hanging! The price are unbelievably affordable! Please visit their website to learn more about this wonderful nonprofit organization and to see their own art gallery!
