I basically make about $6,000-$8,000 a month online. It’s enough to comfortably replace my old jobs income, especially considering I only work about 10-13 hours a week from home. I was amazed how easy it was after I tried it….. ===))> 𝐖­𝐰­𝐰.𝐅­𝐮­𝐥­𝐰­𝐨­𝐫­𝐤.𝐂­𝐨­𝐦

Pretty accurate. Just that it didn't use to come so close to me.

This one is pretty close… sometimes it feels like I’m in a Snuggie or whatever but the Snuggie is my depression. I can’t get out and it is acting and speaking for me.

Yeah.. I had depression for a few weeks and was even considering suicide but I reminded myself that my friends would be devastated if I died.

    I personally don't see depression in this (I suffer from depression, but depression has many faces). However, it speaks to me in other ways. Very beautiful and atmospherical. And what skills you have!

    I see a lot of light there. It's a beautiful painting.

    Thank I you so much! This is the super busy shopping street Lille Øvergaten in Bergen, Norway. It’s usually this very busy street full of life 24/7, one of my favorite spots to people watch. But this is during the lockdown, all alone and empty with no real end in sight. Just stark whiteness, and not much else. I made this during one of the most depressed times in my life, so for me it is my depression.

    I find myself turning hard times in this drawing. I see why I never managed to "express my emotions" in art. For me it is not about darkness, but about silent desperation of everyday life. I will explore this approach in the future. Where can I see more of your work?

    I may be left, but how long can I survive when there is no one and nothing else in the universe?

    This one fits my depression too I never feel sad or some anxiety..but mountainweight tired, disconnected and lost in shadows...there is this akward silence instead of any energy, that most of the other pictures contain

    Beautiful work. Love the contrast of precise drawing and expressive spontaneous paint spills.
