description The art practice enables both people’s social reintroduction and personal experience. The creativity practice allows someone’s mental and emotional development process, providing people a wider worldview, which helps them taking decisions in different situations in life. The aim of the activity described in this paper was to improve the participants’ quality of life, allowing them to uncover their creative potential and applying it to problem solving, pursuing new alternatives of action and interpersonal relations, such as the ones they have in their personal, familiar and social lives. Furthermore, it aimed to provide the self-knowledge and the selfvaluing of the individual through the contact with art. The method consisted of offering art workshops - abstract spatula painting - in which group activities were developed. The materials used by the participants were 70 x 90 cm canvas, as the base to create their paintings, brushes, spatulas, dimensional acrylic in black and white, acrylic paint in primary colors, white and black. It was noticed at the end of the process that each participant found singular characteristics in the creating process. Concrete and defined images were not observed in any of the paintings, since the spectator can interpret the creation as he or she wants. This positive activity contributes effectively to people’s quality of life; therefore, it is really important that these workshops continue to exist.

O fazer artístico possibilita tanto a reinserção social quanto a experiência pessoal. O exercício da criatividade permite o desenvolvimento do processo mental e emocional do indivíduo, proporcionando uma visão mais ampla de mundo, tomando decisões nas mais variadas situações da vida. O método aconteceu através de oficinas de arte – pintura abstrata - espatulado com atividades desenvolvidas em grupo de 15 pessoas. Os participantes utilizaram painéis 70 x 90 cm como suporte para a criação dos trabalhos. Os materiais empregados foram pincéis, espátulas, dimensional acrílico nas cores preto e branco e tinta acrílica nas cores primárias, branco e preto. Observou-se que cada participante ao final do processo encontrou características singulares no ato de criar. Nas telas não observamos imagens concretas e definidas, sendo o observador quem interpreta como desejar a criação de cada um. Na arte abstrata o espectador se torna também criador, pois a obra é interpretada com os elementos subjetivos de quem a observa e não do criador. O resultado final são telas com traços, movimentos e cores distintas, cada qual com sua graça e encantamento; agradáveis aos olhos dos observadores. Segundo participantes, são momentos de descontração e relaxamento. Há uma interação prazerosa com os colegas de trabalho, no qual o indivíduo esquece os problemas cotidianos e exercita seu bem estar psíquico e o seu anti-estresse. Essa ação positiva contribui efetivamente para a Qualidade de Vida das pessoas sendo de suma importância que tais oficinas continuem a acontecer.
