This is my art.

If you have AuDHD, you know the struggle of trying to access that elusive state of flow.

I decided to stop overthinking it. I put my AirPods on and just let my hands move—no plan, no pressure. Here is what happened when I simply let go.

This exploration was created using a mix of traditional media.
– Uni Pin Fineliners.
– Watercolour.
– Oil pastels.

Following a session with my psychologist, I wanted to translate my emotions into something visual. I visited Spotlight in Albion Park Rail and wandered the aisles until the oil pastels caught my eye.

I picked up an inexpensive pack to experiment with, and as soon as I began, I was hooked.

They allow me to be rough and spontaneous, which is exactly how I need to express myself.

If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend trying them—though fair warning: they definitely get messy!
