New Beginning

Pencil, acrylic & watercolor

Being chronically ill has meant having a lack of control in my life. When I feel well enough to sit down and create art, it gives me back some control. Being able to create beautiful art and make people smile at the same time gives me purpose. Art is also helping me heal from trauma in a way that other types of therapy can’t give me. Art allows me to find connection within myself and to the outside world.
