I Created “Don’t Cry, Craft!” Challenge To Help Me Battle Depression And Anxiety

ADVERTISEMENT

I did 30-days-challenge to help me cope with winter depression and anxiety. I made a sketch every day and sometimes it was the only thing that made me get up in the morning.

I used multiple techniques and styles to find and understand which one suits me the best.

Important: I don’t upload this because I think I’m somehow special or even a good artist, but because I know there are people who struggle as I do, and this is my idea how to keep going.

Some of the ideas for the pictures aren’t mine.
