I was inspired by and #inktober prompt, WEAK, and even though this isn’t ink I wanted to make something. It made me think of when worrying too much becomes toxic and eats you from the inside out. Stay healthy friends.

Holy bandwagon, this meme is going around again. I’m happy to say that I feel more productive this year already and am excited to see what comes next. ✌

“Pierrot” 3300 x 4221px digital painting.

I wanted to paint my feelings of a sensory overload. Some days I’m overstimulated by sounds and those days are especially difficult.

I’ve come to understand that I’m most motivated and focused on art when I’m stressed. Realizing that’s not a healthy way to express myself, I’ve been working towards identifying why that is. I picked up art in my teenage years as a form of escapism. I try to channel my thoughts and feelings into paintings, hoping that they can speak for me and say what I don’t think I have the vocabulary for. This one took me on a little journey.

It’s taken me a long time to believe that people are not halves, we are more than that. Embracing self-love and investing in yourself is essential for a positive outlook on life and real happiness. Love your smile, your laugh, your skin. You have your company for the rest of your life, and you are the only you there is.

I originally drew this on photoshop and transferred the file over to procreate, check it out.
