Not too happy with this but I'm proud of pushing myself to experiment with color and media (sketch pens, felt pens, water color pencils)

This one is a celebration of #BeforeSunrise, and of Celine.
The sun. The ferris wheel. The grave stone.
"Now, I'm 10 years older, and she's still 13, I guess. It's funny."

A really rough day, today. Rough like the sea gets as the moon comes up. Chaotic.
This is for the hope that tomorrow will be filled with yellow and warmth and that the sea will be quiet again.

Two days too late, but having grown up in the Middle East, Ramadan will always be a special time. All the sewayyian that comes home from your best friend's mom, the shorter school hours, wishing every stranger you see...
This is an ode to my childhood.

I drew my depression. The hair is TERRIBLE, at best, I know. But I tried drawing a human so smol yay
I keep saying that visually my depression feels like a leak in my spine that bleeds gray into my insides. This is my puddle of pain.

What our minds are during this pandemic, dark, sleepless, clueless and jagged;
and what I hope our minds will be if we survive it - sunny, green with puppers and dinner dates

Couldn't have made anything today except a #tribute to #Irrfan.
This is only a humble attempt, a failed one even. But it is one from the heart all the same.
Roohdar from Haider will haunt me forever.

Six days of radio silence because work had submerged me. But I'm back and hopefully here to stay.
Today's artwork is a thank you note - to my anti dep and anti anxiety meds, for keeping me afloat, on the very turbulent ocean of my mental illnesses.

I made a drawing yesterday that I hated too much to post to this thread; so much that I got very suicidal.
Today is a revival attempt, an attempt to stay in bloom one more day. @meh_ugh_meh thank you for making me think of flowers today.
