As it turns out, not only have I ever realized what being bored feels like, it also turns out Anxiety and ADHD restlessness and/or Depression and ADHD under-stimulation feel very similar but are very different. Make that make sense x.x
Sharing my (rather dark) experience with ADHD as a small contribution to #CosmicTakeOver, an amazing event organized by @adhd-alienand@Schnumn for ADHD Awareness Month. Make sure to follow the hashtag/artists for more ADHD comics these coming days <3

Today marks the start of the Golden Week in Japan, I’ve always loved to see the “Koinobori” (those fish-like flags), I find the colors are so pretty and love to see big groups flying in the wind, it inspired me to make this illustration.
Love these brushes, really gives the texture of watercolor! Traditional Procreate brushes by @Maxulichney

Hello everyone!
I’ve been a freelance artist for over 10 years. I’ve been fortunate to work at a toy company as lead illustrator and I’ve had the great luck to be represented by an illustration agency and have unbelievable opportunities to work with huge clients, such as Neil Patrick Harris.
But there are so many things about freelance life no one talks about. Depression, for instance, is not highlighted in success stories yet I’ve come to learn depression gives me more depth and sensibility as an artist. So I think that, instead of focusing on showing you just how to illustrate, I want to also share about how I navigate life as a freelance artist, with all its ups and downs.
And so I’m happy (and scared) to announce I’ll be launching a patreon next month! I hope you all join me, I look forward to getting to know you guys and help in any way I can moving forward!!

Hello everyone!
A little late is better than never? Here are my New Years resolutions for this 2020. Already working hard to get everything done!
Something my therapist always tells me: Every time you want to accomplish something write it affirmatively and with intention! So I thought there would not be a better way to kick off the year than to write my resolutions as affirmations.

Slowly getting used to drawing in Procreate <3 .
My therapist and I have been talking on a regular basis for a few years now but, last year in particular was the most challenging of all. Depression got the best part of me. I couldn’t draw or function for most of the year. It’s been tough but having her support has been life saving.
.
To that end, I want to share one very small tip she has given me that has really helped in a big way: at the end of the day, when you are ready to go to sleep, count your small accomplishments of the day. Any three things, no matter how small. Getting out of bed is huge accomplishment when all you can do is lay down and sleep. Be kind to yourself <3
