(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, March 02, 2015 ) New York, New York -- With spring just around the corner, Art and Craft supplier, Hand Touched Crafts kicked off an end of season promotion this week with a $10 Amazon discount voucher for their versatile Student Artist Brush Set . The voucher is available from the Hand Touched Crafts website for redemption on Amazon.
The Student Artist Brush set is a multi-functional set of 12 synthetic paintbrushes in a PVC artist roll. The paintbrushes vary in size and brush head type providing a broad selection of brushes for numerous art and craft pursuits. The durable synthetic brush fibre is suitable for use with many different mediums, including acrylic, watercolour, oil paints, ink, dye and lacquer.
The company have also included a new ‘End of Winter Blues' board to their Pinterest collection, which is designed to inspire amateur and accomplished artists. The new board is full of painting, illustration and craft ideas, along with info-graphics and links on the effect color can have on emotions, winter art therapy, and Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD).
Hand Touched Crafts spokesperson Ms Tammy Hill commented, "the end of winter can be particularly hard for many people, especially those who suffer the winter blues. Painting and craft activities can help lessen the gloomy end of winter. We hope that our End of Winter Blues Pinterest board will help inspire people with positive creative ideas that they can put into practice regardless of their skill level.
Color can have such a powerful influence on emotions and painting is a fun way to absorb the healing energy of color. The Student Artist Brush Set is a great asset for those wanting to learn to paint as well as anyone who enjoys experimenting with different painting techniques or crafts."
Seasonal Affective Disorder, also known as the Winter Blues is an officially recognised mood disorder. Its cause is related to a reduction in exposure to natural sunlight during the winter months. Art Therapy is a way for people to escape the emotional effects of illness by distracting their attention during the creative process of making art. Color Therapy is an alternative medicine, where it is believed that healing can be achieved by the rebalancing of color energy in the body. Color Therapy is different from Light Therapy, which is often used in the treatment of SAD. Informational links for Art, Color and Light Therapy can all be found on the Hand Touched Crafts End of Winter Blues Pinterest board.
