    The document discusses Robert Plutchik's wheel of emotions theory. It proposes there are six basic emotions - joy, trust, fear, surprise, sadness, and anticipation - that can be combined to form more complex emotions. For example, joy and trust combine to create love. The theory also suggests emotions exist on a gradient rather than being entirely distinct. The document then provides an art activity where participants reflect on a feeling or topic and express it creatively using various art supplies.

    Basic Emotions
    There are many different types of emotions that have an influence on how we live and interact
    with others. At times, it may seem like we are ruled by these emotions. The choices we make, the
    actions we take, and the perceptions we have are all influenced by the emotions we are
    experiencing at any given moment.

    Combining Emotions
    Psychologist Robert Plutchik put forth a "wheel of emotions" that worked something like the
    colour wheel. Emotions can be combined to form different feelings, much like colours can be
    mixed to create other shades.
    According to this theory, the more basic emotions act something like building blocks. More
    complex, sometimes mixed emotions, are blendings of these more basic ones. For example, basic
    emotions such as joy and trust can be combined to create love.
    Rather than being entirely distinct, however, the researchers found that people experience these
    emotions along a gradient.
    Art Activity
    The Initial Picture:
    Start with reflecting on yourself. Think of a question, a topic or an emotion you would like to put
    on the paper. It can be a story, picture, landscape, place, animal, or random shapes and colours.
    There is no right or wrong, there is no rules. Just pick the first thought, feeling or question and
    put it on the paper.
