I hit a rough patch / Healing with art and self-care

When life throws you a bump in the road, it can be difficult to find the energy and motivation to make art. This video follows my journey through a difficult time, exploring what happened and the ways I refocused on self-care and eventually found relief and comfort in my painting practice.

I also wanted to say, in advance, thank you for providing me with the opportunity to share this story. It was therapeutic for me and a lovely way to capture special memories. I hope that the video is encouraging, as we all go through ups and downs that impact our creative process and well-being. If you want to get straight to the painting part, it starts at 8:22.
