I mostly do selfportraits with watercolours inherited from my mum and greatgrandma. I find that it helps me process and communicate emotions + it's easy to get reference pictures. (i also draw other people, like lovers and friends, sometimes)

gforce2001 if you get good watercolours it honestly is more doable than you might think!

my artistic side has atrophied lately but starting to get back into it as i realize it's.. huge for my mental health. extremely low barrier to entry. give it a try and open yourself up to experimentation on a rainy day. go crazy. i painted a self-portrait using a mixture of ash, water, and coffee grounds.

My mom learnt how to paint after watching online tutorials! It’s so cute when she sends photos of these in our group chat. She loves landscapes and abstract; some of my favorites (Lavender field, northern lights, bubbles, rose bouquet, and a villa entrance) ✨

one thing i‘ve learned in any and every trying time in my life... if no one got me, my watercolors do.
i’ve kept a watercolor journal consistently since i was a lil kid. it was how i learned to make art, painting by my lonesome in my room. though i can’t argue i’m good… the creative practice i made all those years ago makes it sacred.

As y'all might know, I'm a climber. Which is fun, cute, sexy and I recommend everyone to become one. Only downside is that it's def a male dominated sport. There's plenty of girls who climb, but a large majority (in our gym) is male. Meaning that the likelihood of going on an outdoor climbing trip without men.. is small. Unless, of course, you organise a girls-only climbing trip. I would highly recommend doing so. Men r great but it's also nice to only be surrounded by girls who know what's it like to climb when you have a menstrual cycle and don't have a natural knack for dynamic power. Made me feel supported, seen and connected.
