This artwork shows most of my life. As a neurodivergent person, I sometimes do things differently than others. I was bullied a few weeks ago and stood up for myself which made a huge impact on my emotions. Having many passions gives me an opportunity to freely express myself. Sometimes my life seems a little difficult, so every once in a while I express my emotions through creating something. Whether I am smelling the delicious aroma of banana bread, wrapping my mind around the complicated folds of origami, or running through the flow of watercolour, my emotions are always present.
