So let's get started.

One of the biggest questions was, am I able to maintain this? Is this even sustainable? And then it's also a little tricky when another major catastrophe happens in the country or in the world and people are, they don't always want to admit it, but they're sitting and waiting for me to say something or draw something profound.

And it's like, I eat myself trying to process through this own grief and trauma and And then, you know, that's super hard to even create sometimes out of that.

Sometimes good things are born out of that, but trying to create positive, hopeful art out of that place is not always possible for me immediately, at least.

So

So what do you do to try to process and center yourself while continuing to be creative?

Well, one thing that I shared with my audience when the first wave kind of arrived is, hey, I'm so glad you're here.

So glad the art has been helpful to you.
