Terminology & Intake Questions

I am considering art therapy and during the phone discussion, the therapist I spoke to indicated that she did a couple of small tests during intake. Could someone clarify if these are performance based tests or dexterity tests or what? I understand a psychologist doing question-based testing, but what kind of test does an art therapist administer?

Secondly, one goal is to learn more about how to draw realistic representations of things one would see in life; to actually learn how to draw. She wanted to know if I was interested in learning about "volume." I tried to get an explaination of that concept and could not grasp what she was saying. Can someone explain the concept of "volume" to me please?

Thank you in advance for your assistance. Anythng you say will help me deal with anxiety as I await our first appointment.
