A reminder that we are never really as weak as we feel. On top of that, there is strength in numbers. I’ll be joining a peaceful protest this Sunday, I hope many others do as well. Nothing is lost until we let it be. Stay safe, stay sane

Another late night dumping out the dark stuff on paper in the hopes my brain will let me sleep after

I’ve been really struggling with everything going on in the world… Decided to spend my evening trying to catch a breath, so I can keep my mental health in check enough to stay present with the challenges ahead. Stay safe, my friends, and stay sane x

Sunday sketch

#art #sketch #drawing

A sketch to help me process my health situation. It helps me greatly to have an outlet for this stuff

#art #sketch #drawing

Tried to paint about how my current medical situation feels both physically and mentally. Kinda think it looks like shit, but that seems oddly fitting

Train rides are for silly sketches

@RKristuf@mastodon.social thanks!

Went to see some live music and went home to paint. Not sure I like it, but hey, I made a thing and that’s always a win!

Some days my soul just feels like a broken mess of sad and hurt. On those days, I try to paint. Rubbing the paint around on the canvas feels like applying ointment to the mental bruise

Staying in your bubble is bad, but by Glob is it comfy sometimes!

Felt like drawing a weird kitty, so I did

- All is well -
A reflection on how people often assume all is well because someone looks good / stable / healthy on the surface. Not all demons or health struggles are visible at first glance. Try to imagine people complexly, believe them when they speak up.

I painted this about 2 decades ago. Happy bunny day everyone, no matter which version of it you celebrate

#painting

A ‘low waste’ sticker I made a while back by turning an old coaster into a printing block. I use the leftover paint from my rollers for the background colour.

Flashback to when this got flagged for nudity on a different app…

#art #painting

Made this little duo a while back. They represent the ghost of myself I felt I had become, and the thing that got me there. I am grateful that I got through and no longer feel like that ghost most days

I like trying to say a lot with just a few lines. Many people seem to enjoy saying very little with a lot of words. It kinda annoys me

#art #painting

- Evermore - a rumination on the feeling of having a permanent murder of crows in my head tearing at the seams, telling me this pain will be for evermore. Would have preferred ravens saying nevermore but oh well

#art #painting

A somewhat older ‘quick and dirty’. It’s another plea for more kindness in the world. In hard times, daring to be soft is an act of rebellion
