I was not feeling mentally well in the past two months. So much so that every aspect of my life started to fall apart. But hey I managed and I'm slowly picking the pieces back up.

In order to rekindle my inspiration, I went through my old art folders and found this sketch of Lfiewedd ferociously breathing fire. It felt somehow right to finish it. Sometimes when I feel overwhelmed I imagine she stands behind me and burns down anything that bothers me.

What do you do when you feel down? Do you imagine you have a guardian of sorts too?

I love the brightness of the fire, and I love that you imagine her standing behind you helping you battle your demons when you are struggling. I have a similar relationship with Theodore, my dragon. Although he much less intimating. And instead of fiercely protecting me and breathing fire he will wrap me in one of his decorative scarfs and make me a cup of some sort of herbal tea. I have a little happy place with him, and I think it is one of the reasons I adore receiving art of him, because it makes me feel that much closer &lt;3. But I understand the struggle of getting back on your feet, and feeling accomplished without minor setbacks pushing you back months. I am still coming out of almost 2 and a half years of burnout from a hard job situation and I am just learning how to set time aside again without feeling like I am clawing tooth and nail to devour whatever free time I think I have. Hang in there friend! We've got this.
