being nude is natural and taboo at the same time

i don’t have a perfect body

but i have me and i love it

so i present it confidently and give that energy to others

because i know what it’s like to struggle with your body, mind, and spirit

i get you.

be free with yourself

Feb Sketch 2

No idea what i created, honestly tried to do this sketch in less than 15min.

making characters up

sunshine is fine

being outside is necessary for me to decompress.

be in tune with nature

the one thing that made us excel also made us weak

we stopped living in nature

so we disconnected

with how to survive as a being

so just remember that

go outside

connect with your world

don’t give your soul out, i know you love to.

i know that it feels good to make others feel like the world.

to love them. to hold them. give them ev...

I ain’t no snack

Here to feed colonies.

the only light

the grass is always green when the grass is green

don’t be fooled

Head Vomit- January

Attention is our biggest distraction. 

Attention is our biggest stress. 

And our attention is our perception. 

the mind wanders 50% of the time. does it wander well?
