“…These results show that PPC also contributes to planning the limb movements in addition to the frontal motor area and the cerebellum (Chivukula et al, 2019). This aligns with the idea that the IPL constructs the spatial representation while the SPL is connected with visuospatial working memory and sensorimotor processing (McCrea, 2014;Griffith and Bingman, 2020;Raimo et al, 2021). Collectively, these results addressed the core function of the fronto-parietal network in the drawing.…”

“…Drawing tasks can be classified into externally-cued (e.g., copying from an existing model) and internally-cued drawings (e.g., drawing from memory and imagery) according to the stimuli (Yuan and Brown, 2014 , 2015 ; Griffith and Bingman, 2020 ). Moreover, drawing a familiar object (objective drawing) is distinguished from drawing unfamiliar or meaningless stimuli (nonobjective drawing; Yuan and Brown, 2015 ; Griffith and Bingman, 2020 ; Raimo et al, 2021 ). In addition, the need for creativity, complexity of stimuli, and other attributes should also be considered when performing drawing tasks (see Table 1 , Figure 1A ; Saggar et al, 2017 ).…”

“…This indicates the need for more frequent saccades and more intensive visuospatial processing under copying conditions (Yuan and Brown, 2015 ). In contrast, internally-cued drawings elicit distinct activation of bilateral dlPFC, the occipital-temporal region of the ventral stream (Griffith and Bingman, 2020 ). The difference in activated patterns is consistent with the involvement of the dorsal and ventral pathways in different drawing paradigms.…”

“…Although the PPC is highlighted in drawing activities, its functions are based on the comprehensive degree of association with other parts of the brain. The functional network for drawing may involve a large scale of networks such as the dorsal stream, execution network, attention network, and memory network (Yuan and Brown, 2015 ; Griffith and Bingman, 2020 ). How these complex functional networks are organized remains to be explored in future studies.…”

Drawing is a comprehensive skill that primarily involves visuospatial processing, eye-hand coordination, and other higher-order cognitive functions. Various drawing tasks are widely used to assess brain function. The neuropsychological basis of drawing is extremely sophisticated. Previous work has addressed the critical role of the posterior parietal cortex (PPC) in drawing, but the specific functions of the PPC in drawing remain unclear. Functional magnetic resonance imaging and electrophysiological studies found that drawing activates the PPC. Lesion-symptom mapping studies have shown an association between PPC injury and drawing deficits in patients with global and focal cerebral pathology. These findings depicted a core framework of the fronto-parietal network in drawing tasks. Here, we review neuroimaging and electrophysiological studies applying drawing paradigms and discuss the specific functions of the PPC in visuospatial and sensorimotor aspects. Ultimately, we proposed a hypothetical model based on the dorsal stream. It demonstrates the organization of a PPC-centered network for drawing and provides systematic insights into drawing for future neuropsychological research.

Using mobile brain/body imaging to advance research in arts, health, and related therapeutics

The uses of mobile brain/body imaging (MoBI) are expanding and allow for more direct study of the neurophysiological signals associated with behavior in psychotherapeutic encounters. Neuroaesthetics is concerned with the cognitive and neural basis of art appreciation, and scientific correlations are being made in the field that might help to clarify theories claimed in the creative arts therapies. Yet, most neuroaesthetics studies are confined to the laboratory and do not propose a translation for research methods and clinical applications. The creative arts therapies have a long history of clinical success with various patient populations and will benefit from increased scientific explanation to support intervention strategies. Examining the brain dynamics and motor behaviors that are associated with the higher complex processes involved in artistic expression offers MoBI as a promising instrumentation to move forward in linking ideas from neuroaesthetics to the creative arts therapies. Tracking brain dynamics in association with behavioral change allows for more objective and quantitative physiological monitors to evaluate, and together with subjective patient reports provides insight into the psychological mechanisms of change in treatment. We outline a framework that shows how MoBI can be used to study the effectiveness of creative arts therapy interventions motivated by the 4E approach to cognition with a focus on visual art therapy. The article illuminates how a new partnership among the fields of art therapy, neuroscience, and neuroaesthetics might work together within the 4E/MoBI framework in efforts to advance transdisciplinary research for clinical health populations.
