can’t escape you.

I actually had a few ideas for new Expedition 33 fanarts, but today I just don't have the mood for it. A missile hit my home today, destroying it for the second time. At least all of my family is safe and alive.

Despite that, I've been thinking about how art has become a kind of way for me to deal with pain. Through it, I can express emotions I'm not used to showing, and say things I normally wouldn't say out loud. It's also my way of immersing myself in familiar landscapes and remembering the happy moments from the life I used to have.

If I had the Chroma, like the artists in the game, would I use it? Absolutely. I understand the pain of Aline and Alicia, who tried to recreate life on canvas while living in an imaginary world with their loved ones. But I also understand that it's not a way out. Visiting familiar places and being with the people you love is one thing; choosing to live in a lie and refusing to face reality is something completely different.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm grateful I can at least recreate things that are important to me in my paintings. I think that's exactly why Expedition 33 affected me so deeply. It became a source of rest, inspiration, and something to think about all at once.

And thanks to this game, having grey hair at 24 doesn't feel like some kind of defect anymore!
