| Sumario: | The paper explores the application of art-based learning to teach the concepts of caring theories. A course was designed for the post-license nursing program to teach the art and science of caring in nursing. The objective was for the student to translate theoretical concepts of caring into everyday practice and be able to foster an environment that supports healing through building healthy, caring relationships with a patient. Aesthetic learning enabled the students to translate their knowledge, experiences, and reflections into improving their interactions with their patients and recognizing that caring behaviors permeate everything nurses do for their patients.
