I’m going through a bit of a rough patch with my mental health at the moment. I’ve been through difficult times before and I have some idea of what I need to do to start feeling better, but it always takes some time. So for now I’m making sure to take care of myself and just waiting for my brain to become a friendlier place. And using art as a way to vent these feelings. I hope you like this one! I got the inspiration / reference image from unsplash, it’s included in the pictures above.

Reminds me of The Yellow Wallpaper which is also about mental health. Take care! Always appreciate everything you do.

Please feel some of the admiration and support I and others are sending. You are an exceptional artist and teacher. You have changed lives for the better. I can't see inside your mind, but if you look outward, you will see a large following of artists who owe you a great deal. Take time to heal as you need. Dare I say it: You are loved by many!

We all go through difficult problems in life. Know that it is all temporary, and life doesn't stay down forever, it all ends. Just try to be positive and look for something to keep going even if it is like a mustard seed. It's ok. Trust me. No one is perfect, nothing is perfect, and a lot of things trigger one and the other. This life is imperfect, no one ever remains happy forever, there is always something. Work through it like we all are and know that you are definitely not on your own.

Take care Lois! Know that your art has always brought some sort of peace and joy to many, including me! When your art hits the right people, your heart is in the right place. But it's also valid to have downtimes with our emotions, so take all the time you need to recover!

This is my favorite room scene piece of yours! You can feel everything you mentioned in your piece❤︎ Thank you for being so open with your mental health journey-it gives me so much courage to put myself out there because I struggle with depression & anxiety too x

Loish

i'm sorry you're going through that too. wishing you strength!! let's hope for a happier and warmer season ahead!

Loish

thank you! it's tough to talk about it sometimes because when my mental health is doing badly, i want to isolate and not tell anyone which tends to make it worse. so many people go through it though! hugs!!

It is a lovely representation of emotional struggle. Talking about the bad stuff is hard, and sometimes just saying that things are hard is enough. I hope and wish for you to feel better soon. And I am cheering you on from afar!

No words can make you feel better right now. I know. Take some time off. We won’t go anywhere. We stay with you. Like a blanket.
