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

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 struggling a lot lately and one thing my therapist really stressed is that i need to push myself to do things i love even though i don't get the same satisfaction i once got
so today i got my coloured pencils out after a loong time and started drawing and i already feel a bit better
so i wanted to share this small step
it's not the best art but its art <3

made this a few months ago when i was feeling much worse, but it finally got me to put my hands on a canvas again & figure out my art style! i'm so proud of it; it's one of the first things that turned out like i wanted it to in my head. (i like going back over the painting with white paint pen & black ballpoint pen to make it look more sketchy & graphic)

i cannot relate to women who miss their girlhood. when they felt carefree, happy. for me adulthood has been the first time i've experienced feeling carefree and happy. i work an 8:30-5:30 job and I pay my rent and I buy groceries and I take the bus and this is the happiest and safest and least stressed i've ever been. girlhood was awkward and uncomfortable. restrictive and quiet. sexualized. I didn't own my body, my space, my time. i was scared of my dad, i just wanted my mom to understand me. i didn't feel pretty and boys were mean. girls too. womanhood has been freeing and healing. I wear what i want, i eat what I want. my home is so safe, my body is too. i wish i could miss girlhood. but I can't, so I give my adult woman self the joy and safety and pink bedroom walls and stuffed animals and girly dresses she never had as a child. i give myself comfort. i listen to and I believe myself. i hold my inner little girl and tell her she is so beautiful and so loved. i try to give my adult woman self the girlhood i didn't have

sometimes I think "I wish I was a writer" but then I remember I can just write
