Self Shape

By  Jera May 2024

Automatic drawing - ink and watercolour

One of the ways I have tried to stay connected since childhood is through doodling. This is a common occupation strategy for the  neurodivergent and has helped me stay present in the room.  Enabling me to listen to what teachers, parents, colleagues, etc are saying, while still allowing the side of my brain which needs to consistently express itself to be entertained.

Recognising this habit was part of my practice was a liberating  finding myself moment .
