Art Therapy: Mushrooms in Ink

Ahh, this weekend was excellent. I soaked up some much needed sunshine, took a stroll on the beach with my momma, and spent an entire afternoon drawing for my zine project. It is so therapeutic moving my hand again and just letting my mind wander. After 2 hours, this ink drawing appeared:

I have to say, I'm very pleased with the way it looks right now. It was nice not knowing what the sketch was going to look like until I finished it. After a couple of weeks of typing and academic writing, I needed to just draw and let my imagination take me wherever it wanted to go, and once again I feel at peace. Art therapy is such a necessary component in my life, and this weekend was a reminder that I need to make more time for these kinds of projects.

Have a wonderful week and remember to make time for activities you enjoy!
