Here's the stuff I've been up to.

I bleach painted some shirts and I did a drawing using some leftovers from my little photo shoots

I drew this today after my therapy session. today I explained how I believe I'm not a real person or in not supposed to be at least I'm supposed to be an object for the enter and convenience of my family. I'm only alive because my family needs me to bear their emotions and make them laugh not because they love me. after I explained this my therapist who knows I'm an artist told me to draw myself separating the version of me that I think I'm supposed to be and the version of me I am but try no to be.

now if you know me you know I think artist that put a bunch of meaning into art it loses its meaning in a way and I believe that because when you make something with meaning you take away the part that is raw emotion you're so busy making the meaning match the work that it becomes nothing. but anyway done ranting this one does have a little depth I chose to make myself blue to convey that in human note then when it's open that whole mess is what I think my soul looks like I think it's a hot mess I think it's ugly in a beautiful way. the out line of me is supposed to look like a shadowed version of myself holding me across the chest both bc I was to lady to draw boobs and bc I felt like this peoce didn't need them. it's not about feeling naked and watched its about not existing. also I want to note the reason I draw myself wearing sunglasses is because my hands are to shaky to draw the fine details of the eyes without them looking comically bad

I want someone to love and I want someone to love me. I don't have trust in the people who deserve it but I trust strangers who force their way past me down th street I trust a government that wants me dead and I trust a world thats on fire with my life. the difference is I put trust in things I can't disappoint or upset. I put trust in thing that aren't real because if I hold any hope I will be destroyed the second my fragile heart is touched. take my soul, crush it and play with the ashes like sand then was it away.
