I have set up a Youtube channel looking at how art works with mental health positively, and particularly me! So it is a bit of a personal journey where I am given an idea (with some kind of element that has to be included) (an emotion, an adjective..) and then I have a limited time to produce a piece of art.
Why limited time? I am actually doing this as a part of my own personal therapy working with a professional. Pushing myself forward is hard and so this is a commitment that has been set that means that not only do I get to do art, I also get to heal and reflect along the way.

This is one of the earlier YouTube posts.

For me, "Artistic Healing" is more than just a YouTube channel; it's a personal journey towards mental wellness. Join me as I openly share my own experiences...

NOTE - nudity and language in this one.

Of all the projects so far this one is by far the one that I found the most disturbing. It resurrected so many thoughts in my head, and I was actually real...

Some work towards my honours project. I am really enjoying the process of reconnecting with self portraits with texture, line and water. The image becomes 'emoted'. Feedback?

I have known Stuart for two thirds of my life. Our friendship led to a lifelong friendship between my family and a close family friend and Stuart's family near Inverness, in Scotland. On my recent trip it was great to catch up with both him and his amazing wife, Melanie.
I learned that time is no distance between real friends.

Depression is an awful thing.  Over the last month or so it has decimated my life. My saving love, photography, even prompted panic attacks.  I am ashamed and embarrassed both externally and internally.  Yesterday, as I climb my way back to normality, I took out my camera (heart racing and legs buckling) and turned it on myself and my under loved living environment in an attempt to catch the lone-ness of this disgusting condition.  Please check on your friends, and yes I am okay, doing the best I can every day, just like everyone else.

I rescued a cutie pie. Zoe, more often known more often as Zozee! One dog is in love and then other is nonplussed!
My family is complete although an animal loving fella would be nice! 😂🤣
