painting.

i’ve been looking for ways to relax myself for a while now and now that it has started to get cold (let’s not talk about the weather right now because we don’t need that negative energy in our lives), i really couldn’t do the usual things that i would since i just kinda walk around and get food or go to bookstores without actually getting books lol.

anyways, one of my new things i want to start this year is painting. i’ve read somewhere that creating at least one thing a day helps a lot in terms of self-care and just creativity in general. i did use to paint or draw (purely for fun) as a kid and i kinda want to feel that freeing feeling again so i started going to the studio art club my friend runs (shoutout luke lmao) and it’s really nice to have a set time to simply relax and take my mind off things. it’s also a great feeling to have a record of my temporary creative outbursts from time to time. i recommend going to one their meetings and try it for yourself! im sure you’ll enjoy it even if you’re not the artistic type (because im definitely not).

their meeting times are every other monday @7pm in ryder 247!! next one is feb 21st so pull up with me!! (also, how did this become an ad lmao)
