A man says art sculpting has become his “therapy” after being diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease four years ago.
Neil Dalrymple, a ceramic artist from Ruthin, Denbighshire, said his symptoms ease when he sculpts as he feels “calm” and “a sense of peace”.
Since his diagnosis, he has noticed that his drawings and paintings are not as neat as they used to be.
But Neil said it has not affected his sculpting as using the clay is “calming”.
“I can close the door to keep the noise out and concentrate on what needs to be done, and that seems to calm me down,” he said.
