This was a piece made about how anxiety causes many thoughts once you are ready to sleep. So I drew myself as I am somebody who does suffer with this and depicted what it looks like when someone has had little sleep due to the constant worrying thoughts caused by anxiety. I drew in eyebags and the redlines in the eyes and if you look closer in the eyes you see ”thoughts” spelled out in the white of the eyes. I really feel like I was able to show how much anxiety affects people who suffer with it by showing one of the things that anxiety unfortunately does that we cannot control.

To me, creativity means creating something that fully expresses yourself and possibly even find out more about who you are. An outlet where you can do do what you want and escape from reality for a bit.
