Is it possible to forget how to work?
I feel a bit moody today and like if I lost my confidence. The last couple of months were certainly good for my creativity and to get rid of stress I was under almost constantly but I also feel like I kept myself in my autistic bubble a lot (well, that is probably why I […]

Work training (and dodgy Booking.com host)
Finally I’m going for my work training next week. The training is in Portland which is a small town in Dorset and the closest train station is Weymouth. It takes place on Tuesday and Wednesday so I have to go there on Monday as I wouldn’t be able to get there on Tuesday morning, it […]

Autism – how it all began (the importance of effective communication)
I tried to listen to some podcasts about autism today and came across Emily Klonowski’s podcast called Let’s talk about autism. Emily is not a specialist but a psychology student, however it shocked me how unaware she is of her communication. In the introduction to her podcast she says she will be talking about autism […]

I run out of creativity
I slept around 9 hours last night, but the previous night was only 6, so it’s not excessive. Before I started Sleep School it would be six hours one night and then five the next so it really is an improvement. Btw I can’t work out when my subscription runs out. The app states that […]

Yes, I have a driving license (but I do not drive)
And anyway, it’s only provisional… ok, I’ll come back to this part later. Since I bought my subscription to PicsArt on the 10th of December last year, I seriously didn’t anticipate this may ever happen, but I don’t want to do any more art at the moment. Not forever, oh no, I’m sure I’ll come […]

A night of poor sleep
Ok, so I didn’t prioritise sleep yesterday as I chose to do patterns instead, until around 10pm when I saw those two images with words ‘game over’ in my PicsArt feeds. It was really strange, wouldn’t you agree? But I stated here before that I respond to notifications. Of course not all of them – […]

Should I add images to my older posts? (I feel alienated)
You could possibly noticed, if you read my blog for long enough, that I used to add my Redecor designs as illustrations to my posts. I had the idea that it may make it difficult for people to quickly judge what my blog is about, but then Redecor feels like part of me (ok, ok, […]

Since when killing people is classed as moderate violence? (Feedback from the trip to the cinema)
Ok, so I am on my way back from the cinema and I’m still shaking. It was musical called West Side Story, classed as containing ‘moderate violence’ but then I didn’t pay much attention to it – it’s musical, right? So it has to be nice. Moderate violence is, to me, when two people have […]

I need to move on (from too much black)
I managed to create this shape in the morning: The shape I really like, the same the pattern around it but so much black with the orange in the middle seems almost offending! I spent several hours trying to correct it and it looks like I need to admit defeat. It’s really funny with our […]

All this digital art is loads of mental effort
So, first of all, I must say I was made to believe that art can only be done ‘on the right side of the brain’, that means by being intuitive, not by applying logic. And that was my explanation for not being able to succeed in me earlier efforts: I kept painting and doing mixed […]
