some might find it silly but all those inks and clays and fun stuff from the craft store help me feel alive and help me show it through tangible items too
i've been making """good"" art lately, things i can wear and pretty art for my new apartment and tbh i really miss going to the art studio and making reckless ugly gross shit because that made me feel so so good inside
Like literally buy cheap sketchbooks and your fave medium and just start. It might seem ugly and useless in the beginning but think of it as a child going from scribbling to drawing lines and colouring between them. Like who cares if itβs bad. Itβs colorful and fun and stimulating without being brain rot levels of overstimulating. Bonus points if you make random shit without using gadgets for inspo or tutorials
on a VERY big cyanotype kick lately so I have been plotting and tinkering and wanted to make myself something special and unique so I captured the essence of girlhood aka dumped the contents of my tote bag and printed it ONTO the bag (is this meta - also pls ignore the bleed this is literally only my fifth time doing this)
taking care of yourself is sexy, live music is sexy, taking care of your hearing WHILE listening to live music is extremely sexy
(i forgot my ear plugs last night can you tell i was suffering a bit)
love that i have a camera that lets me do multiple exposures without having to frankenstein the film out of the roll after iβve finished it (feat. my lovely partner) !!
