For a while now I've experienced a bit of a disconnect from my characters. A lot of my personal experiences in their backgrounds made it hard for me to create without a bit of a distaste in my mouth. There were some characters that were completely abandoned due to an immense pressure I felt every time I wanted to create something new or completely separate from the timeline I've put them in. In the meantime I've been going through therapy to finally face my past and unspoken struggles. And the most unexpected thing started to happen. I've began to reconnect with the characters. Some of their storylines began to change as my problems found conclusions and closure. I think that at some point I might change their stories completely, move in some of the previously disliked by me characters, give them a space to grow just as I did in the past few months.

This page is a small step to do that. Dorothy was somewhat a villian, character who encapsulated an experience that I can finally let go of. It feels good to have her back and not hate myself through her.

Here's some wholesome sisterhood henna boob painting featuring Jean and Dorothy. Almost like a Superego and the Shadow meeting to spend some time together~
