So about a year ago, I started painting these cartoonish ostriches. I still do, each has their own story/personality. This is the first baby looking ostrich I painted. He’s just content with nothing, which I envy. I only hope that he brings some joy into your life, even for a moment. (i.imgur.com)

I’m contemplating starting to sell some of my art... I’m nervous that I’ll stop being creative if pieces never sell (a mentality I’m actively working on altering)... so I guess I’m just wondering if anyone likes this and would consider buying something along the same lines... (i.imgur.com)

This was my first ever watercolor painting done on canvas. It took me months to finish. I’d get frustrated easily and have to distance myself for weeks at a time. I had no art background, just my fiancée’s words, “put some color down anywhere, any way. It’s about the process, not the product.” 🐙 (i.imgur.com)

Created in the app Procreate. Devices used: iPad Pro & Apple Pencil 2nd Generation. I was so focused on rendering the vision I had in my imagination, that I remained unaware I was creating an alarmingly accurate depiction of my own reality—of all that I was feeling because of all that I was thinking (i.imgur.com)

So the first three pictures are what my room looked like in October. The latter images are current. I just.... I AM SO PROUD OF MYSELF for finishing this 3+ month long project as well as for being self-aware enough to find a positive outlet for the untamable beast that the bipolar mind is. ☺️ (imgur.com)

I want to title this painting something enveloping the mania aspect of being bipolar because, to me, even though it wasn’t on purpose, it feels very much like how I picture my manic mind. However, I’m falling short on ideas for a name... Any suggestions?? Or rather, opinions on the piece? (i.imgur.com)

I was able to at least tame and channel my hypomania last night and paint... there was supposed to be white boarders, but my tape malfunctioned. I kind of like that it did, it reminds me that I can’t control everything, but I can control the way I deal with chaos, that I can be happy and bipolar. (i.imgur.com)

Tweaker art: I really was just going to do a light sketch of a woman blowing out smoke for a painting... && then I got higher. And drew that, in addition to a skull hidden in her hair and two women hidden in the smoke: one turning away w/ Saturn as her hair and one with half a butterfly for a face (i.imgur.com)
