I come from a family of workaholics. We are all self employed and work ourselves to death. Everyone said I needed a hobby. I have always loved art so I decided to make some time for that. I bought all kinds of awesome supplies and then started drawing on my iPad and realized this is what I’ve dreamed of my whole life. Once I had enough work under my belt, I bought myself an iPad Pro and pencil with that money and I remember thinking If I would have had this as a kid, my brain would have exploded. It’s just so awesome.
When I had my first daughter, Grace, I struggled a lot with postpartum depression and anxiety. I would hide away and draw what I was going through as a way to process my experience and to get my mind off of the crippling darkness that is postpartum depression. They were funny little drawings which brought joy back to my life, even just for the time that I was drawing.
I just had my second daughter and what do you know, all the same problems are back. It’s a crazy thing to know your mind is playing tricks on you but have no control over it other than finding coping mechanisms. The whole world has gone crazy at the same time too so that hasn’t been awesome for an anxious person. Thus why I have decided to open up commissioned drawings again. Not only do I need something that helps me focus that brings me joy but we also need to replace a lot of lost income because of this economic disaster we are in.
With all of the work I do, it makes me feel good to make other people happy and I hope that these custom doodles of your family, pets, loved ones, etc. bring you as much joy as they bring me.
