hello there! i've been going through a really difficult mental health spiral but i've recently discovered your art, and it's helped comfort and make me feel like i'm not alone in this mess. thank you for what you do, i appreciate you and your work so much!
Hi Anon! Thank you so much for this beautiful message 😭 I am really struggling atm so this brightened my day a lot. I’m so glad my art helps you in some way and I’ll be thinking of you and wishing you all the best ❤️🥹

im sorry you haven't been feeling well mentally. Your art, for what its worth, has definitely saved me from dark thoughts more than a few times. Please take care of yourself like you do with us. never stop being you, and remember that you are loved. I look forward to every piece you make, honestly. I'd buy an entire book of these and read them when I'm feeling sad. The text is so genuine and feels like someone finally understands. thank you for all that you do

Thank yooouuuuuuuuuu oh my god ❤️
What a beautiful kind message 😭
P.S. the book is a great idea, I might do that..
Been going through a rough time with PTSD and your art helps so much. Thank you 💛💛💛

aww anon i’m so sorry to hear things have been hard. i hope that you’re doing a bit better since it took me so long to respond to your ask 😅🥲 life has been hard for me too…but, we both got this! thank you for your message and i’m glad my art is able to help you in some way ❤️
Sorry just wanted to let you know how happy your art makes me
Just now I was feeling really yucky and seeing your work reminded me that things are okay
Still grumpy but not spiraling anymore:)
oh wow that is so wonderful (;o;) !!! thank you for messaging me this ❤️ i’m so glad my art was able to help in some way when life can be so hard at times. sending you love and strength !

your artwork has a very lovely style and your messages are very comforting as well!
thank you so much! 💖💕💖💕
that’s so lovely of you to say 🥲❤️

i don't know if you'll ever see this, but I wish you a good couple of years. I've been a fan for a long time, since when I was in a dark time my friend would send me your art and it felt (and still feels) so genuine. I felt understood by an artist, like someone saw me and went "hey things aren't ok but they're going to be soon"
i want to say a genuine thank you for this. I know i'm not the only one who feels this way about your work, but I finally got the courage to let you know how much you've impacted my life in a positive way. i wish you all of your favorite things!! ^^
[TW: i talk about trauma related stuff]
thank you so much ( ; ; )
i really appreciate you taking the time to write that and i’m so glad that my art has helped you in this way. it means a lot to me to know that as for a very long time i had no sense of purpose besides pleasing men and i thought that all i’m worth is a body for men.
i starting making art while i was still in a relationship with a man and slowly through lots therapy and lots of hardships i allowed myself to be free from that life.
i am always in a battle with my mind and the only thing that keeps me here on earth is medication, my mum and my art. my art is my purpose and to know that it helps so many people (i still can’t believe this) makes me want to keep going.
thank you again for writing me and i hope you’re doing okay lovely. we’ve got this!!!

I had no idea you made coloring pages! Is there a chance you might offer them for sale on Ko-Fi or something similar eventually? I'd love to buy them but I can't really do another subscription thing at the moment.
maybe! i’d love to make a colouring book one day. i tried to make the subscription affordable at $2 a month and the first month is $1.

Your art and words make me cry, they're beautiful!
I wish you well in life!!

Hey, just found your art, and I've just been scrolling and absorbing and smiling and honestly crying just a little (← very very so super positive). And I just… wanted to thank you for drawing, for sharing all of this, and wish you well, I guess. 💖
omg thank you so much for your message, this makes my heart so warm and happy 💖💖💖

Hi! I'm going through a divorce right now and moving out of my home town on my own. I'm scared, but your posts have kept me feeling good and strong about myself. I know I can do this. Your art really helps cement that. Thank you
😭 ohhhhh anon
i’m so sorry to hear you’re going through such a hard time right now
i wish i could hug you
truly we are all fighting our own battles and it can be so hard to see the light. i’m really struggling lately as well but your message gave me a little light ❤️ we will get through this together…
Hi!!! I love your art !! I wanted to ask do you sell phone wallpaper? Because your art means a lot to me and I would love to put it on my wallpaper on my phone ☺️
i want to do this in the future… hopefully one day i’ll find the energy 😂💀 thank you for your love x
Thank you for being you 💕
thank YOU for your kind message and for simply existing x
you are loved 💖
Hi, fellow artist here. Don't you feel like the job, especially if it's a full-time one, drains you of artistic creativity too? I am so tired mentally I can barely focus on processing all my emotions, having my body reach homeostasis, living life, then actually picking up the art supplies to express something about the said lived life part 🥺 I wish living in communities was more accessible and widespread. Anyways, love love love your art! I'm rooting for you!
yeah this is very relatable 😔
i would be drawing everyday if i wasn’t so drained from my job. it’s full-time monday to friday and my weekends are mostly needed to spend recovering and trying to reset for the next work week. i try to plan random days of annual leave so i don’t go insane. coworkers will be like “what are you gonna do on your day off?” and im like, literally just lay down in my bed and try to relax.
thank you for your message and sorry it took me so long to respond but my inbox is 99% spam accounts about palestine 😐
sending u all the love x
