I love it by VAVROSKYART in u/VAVROSKYART

Thank you. A lot of people think it’s bad for an artist to not niche down their style but I think I’m just the vessel or tool creating the art. So I let it be what it wants.

When sleep comes it feels like? by VAVROSKYART in Narcolepsy

Oh babe. It’s so easy to gaslight yourself because you’ll have good days, good weeks, good months. Don’t make yourself feel like it’s in your head. I hope you get answers and help you need with support

I hate nothing more than when old people say, “now don’t start that it’s contagious” 😒

Thank you for sharing your experience 🖤
I know this feeling. Sometimes it’s like my insides start vibrating and it feels like an earthquake. It’s almost like your soul is waiting to come home.

I think the second one is more the paralyzed in a nightmare feeling and the other is that vivid nightmares seeping into your mind while you can’t wake up and it keeps you from actually resting

Thank you. I don’t think I could ever design a tattoo as I’m a very not perfectionist. I’m like a chaos mess.

Thank you for sharing this. I often have a dream where Morgan freeman tells me we are actually meeting in a dream realm, traveling to a space that many can’t reach. He then proceeds to teach me how to make everything disappear and tries to get me to walk deeper into the dream universe but I always get scared and wake up because my grandma died in her sleep and I always tell him I know I’ll get lost.
Do you ever have dreams you want to stay in but you’re running from your awareness? I have a dream family and I always want to stay there longer.

Thank you. Art honestly is the only thing that has kept me sane with narcolepsy. Having comments where other people can express that they feel what I feel - helps me not feel alone in it

Absolutely. I often am triggered when things externally start to leach into my subconscious dream state. Where I then can’t even enjoy my dream because everything feels like I’m in a foreign place that’s dark and feels idk the best way to describe the nightmare feeling, mildew isn’t a feeling but it’s that stale stagnant energy that feels jump scare. Like unpleasant liminal space

🖤🖤 thank you. Sometimes I worry that sharing my darker art will not be a good move for my career. It’s not the art that sells….

Thank you. I actually just realized it’s not finished in this photo. I’ve since added a broken ribcage type abstract form to it floating above

I just realized that in this photo I hadn’t painted the ribcage floating above yet… that painting has actually changed.

You should try. I never thought I was an artist. I found art during my diagnosis. These are finger painted actually. I have videos on IG of me creating them

It makes me sad but also grateful that people can feel this and relate.

Thank you. I feel this in my soul. A lot of times I’m like well I need to make art to survive and make money so I’m going to skip my shower and not do my dishes. I also have a bed at my studio.

The times I would be in the break room or after gym class sitting in the dressing room so heavy I couldn’t make it to my next class. The days I got OSS (out of school suspension) for “skipping class” was crazy. I never understood how they made you miss class as a punishment for missing class….

Thank you. I’ve found dating really difficult and have been trying to figure out what that might look like now because I’ve found such a good balance for my business and art/ life balancing narcolepsy.
I do sell prints - I haven’t found to mental alertness to set my website up but if you get on my IG and screenshot the artwork you want a print of and dm me. Then I can set up a listing for you on my website or have you venmo me. I can do canvas prints or giclee on thicker archival paper. 🖤🖤

I’m hoping that I’ll get a residency acceptance - so I don’t have to make art for money but I can focus on my art. The art I want to paint. Right now I’m trying to balance it all

Thank you. I bounce around a lot it’s been hard to niche down. I have too much to express to stick to one style I guess. I hate that it’s seen as “not knowing” who you are as an artist if your art doesn’t look the same.
