Drawing can be an easy way to self-soothe or to relax and explore your own mind and the creativity that your wonderful mind can produce, because if you’ve drawn before you know that it can be calming at times to just let go of reality and let your imagination sketch your own.

    Very recent work (last week); first "serious" artwork I created after 10+ years of not drawing anything beyond pencil doodles. The first ever artwork of mine where the finished product fully "matched" how I saw it in my head. Will tell backstory of above image if anyone is interested.

    I considered myself "VERY CLEVER" back then, as I had "invented" many wolf subspecies all by myself, such as the racingwolf, the repwolf (reptile + wolf), the dragonwolf, the waterwolf, the vampire wolf, etc. etc. etc. XD Then again, we didn't have the (widely available) internets in the late 80s/early 90s, so as far as I was concerned back then, I was the originator of such clever species such as the "dragonwolf" XD

    That's pretty damn good for an 8 year old. I found my 8 year old school journal. Some of that s**t is so wild but also really concerning to me how advanced my handwriting and writing skills were at that age compared to my 5th grade and high school aged kids now.
