Art Therapy ‘24
I find that when I create art, I can totally lose myself in it. I think art is a way for me to create my own world, envision possibilities that were never possible before. As soon as the pen hits the paper, it’s like a new world is available to me. A world where I can express subconscious thoughts that hadn’t even been expressed into words.
