Having been raised as a overly sheltered child by immigrant parents, I was ingrained with a strong concern for others' opinions and prioritizing their happiness over my own. As I grew older, my confidence dwindled, overshadowed by the constant pressure to please everyone around me. This pressure clouded my judgment and stifled my ability to express my own thoughts and feelings. Feeling suffocated, I sought peace and comfort through art, especially anime. I would say Naruto and Studio Ghibli Films inspired me to draw as a child.
Through my art, I aspire to inspire others to embark on a similar journey of self-discovery and confidence-building ᡣ • . • 𐭩 ♡
