My relationship with food.
I’ve had my ED since I was in grade 7. I would remember restricting so many foods, under eating, binge eating, purging. Feeling so bad for eating a food labeled as bad. That went on throughout high school. I was embarrassed to eat around people and felt extremely bad if I got a piece of …
free your mind.
I went back to work this week. I was extremely anxious to go back, but it’s truly been more wonderful than I could have imagined. I quit a few months ago when I didn’t even feel worthy to work or be around the amazing group of people that I work with. I’m so glad I …

Then and Now.
I love looking back at the art I've done. It all started back in 2014 when Taylor Swift released 1989. Her watercolor painting and her album really inspired me to start painting.

Art Progress for Just Breathe, bookmark.
Every art piece I create usually goes through a different process. I either paint free hand or sketch and then paint over that. Sometimes I'll leave the watercolour for a softer look. Other times I'll go over with pen to add details to make the flowers 'pop'. Below is a photo of four art pieces, …
