Before you begin
Set aside a few quiet minutes and follow the Person Picking an Apple from a Tree (PPAT) prompt without trying to produce a perfect drawing.
InnerCanvas is designed for adults using a private drawing as a starting point for self-reflection, not as a diagnosis or score.
What to review in a report
Look for concrete observations such as person, tree, apple, and reaching action, color and page use, how the task is attempted, then compare those observations with your own intended meaning.
A useful report names uncertainty, conflicting evidence, limitations, and questions you can explore for yourself.
What not to conclude
PPAT research includes clinical and art-therapy contexts, but InnerCanvas does not assess depression or any mental state from the drawing.
Do not use a drawing report to diagnose, screen, hire, discipline, or make a safety decision about yourself or another person.
