I'm trying to find stuff that inspires me again; I feel too jaded and it doesn't serve me well.

I got very disillusioned as an artist in 2025.
Not because of AI, but because of the way the people's creativity is pulverized through a meat grinder of algorithms to dish out as a product to a stressed out consumer.
It's affected the beauty I can see in the world, and my own art greatly.
a monkey-like creature with a thorny, leafy, tail on a branch. The branch has the face of a bat morphing out of it.
I spot, I spot, a creature like a yellow drop . !
a portrait of a person seemingly made of foliage, surrounded in a wooden frames of clasping hands and branches
She chose to go another way, away away, from all of this. 🌱🌿🌳 . . .

thank you for listening
i’ve been drawing illustrations fueled by frustration lately, but it doesn’t provide catharsis. I just feel sad.

Lately there's this feeling I keep Coming Back to,
so I go to the place where it makes sense.
"Oh, here again?", the creatures say, and I respond,
"Yes, if I may."
i'm glad i found you, love of my life, now Carry Me Into Dust .

my life is a gauntlet of nasty textures 🤣
i feel ike i need a monthly support group to talk about climate change and plastics in my country..
i can stay informed on my own but i need community to make my heart strong.
gloves feel bad!!!!
okay i can now do dishes if i have a cloth in front of me that i can wipe my wet hands on every 2.5 seconds :)
