Dude, I am so proud of you. As someone who also deals with depression and anxiety, I really resonated with this. It’s funny that you said you were hoping your journals would become a memoir of the artist behind the art, I think the same way about mine! I hope that after I have long passed away, someone will attempt to understand my work better by reading my words. Anyway, I love that you are thriving in Portland! I lived there once a long time ago, lots of fond memories.

I feel like you and I are often in sync with our thoughts, especially around being artists. I love that for us. And I could totally see you here in Portland. It is such a great energy, and this is my first spring here and it is all that everyone chalked it up to be.

I think so too! I relate to most of what you are talking about when it’s mental health or art-related stuff. And yes, the city of roses!
