It's a lovely Sunday evening,
and I am reintroducing myself to the community!
A challenge initiated by @anomadsoul last year.
I am thriving at 27 years old.
I am a freelancer working with small businesses to jump-start their social media presence. I basically do content creation, hashtag research, design, and illustration to name a few.
I enjoy what I do. It's the first time that I felt this way since I started building my own business. Jumped from one skill to another in hopes of finding what truly sparks joy, and thankfully I did find it last February.
Current Work Status: Finding Ideal Clients
I used to be @olaivart.
I especially love drawing and taking photographs of my everyday life. I have 14 cats & 1 dog. I currently have 3 tattoos, and definitely adding 1 or 2 this year. I love BTS and IU.
I am moving out in July.
2020 was a year of love & loss —
I honestly don't know how I survived the year.
I honestly thought I wouldn't survive the year.
Everything was a blur if I'm being honest with you. This pandemic has taught me the very basics of life which is to cherish the people you love & to live more authentically for yourself.
So why am I here again?
I want to freeze moments into photographs or turn a simple Sunday afternoon into a montage I can look back on one day.
Blogging does that to me — pushing me to take more photographs & videos so I can share more with my audience; bringing them with me through snippets of my ordinary life.
And of course,
I want to travel.
By myself.
With my family.
Losing 2 very important people in my life made me appreciate my parents & relatives more.
I wish I had the means to bring them to beautiful places.
I wish I had the means to make them feel more important & loved.
I wish I had the means to shower them with little surprises, with or without occasion (because my #lovelanguage is gift-giving.)
So many things I wish I did before they left. For good.
Being here again also means sharing my #artjourney for the world to see.
Art.
Something that I have no control over but at the same time the only thing I have full control of.
The thickness of the lines.
The hues of colors.
The expression.
The flow.
The things I am confident at.
But the darkness I masked with being way too busy is something I have surrendered to again and again.
The voice.
The void.
The blankness.
It has gone to a point where I told myself I will no longer paint.
I hope that I will be able to traditionally make something again now that I feel more responsible in sharing more of who I am as a person, and more importantly, as an artist.
I write as well.
Nothing too fancy.
If you want to read my past life, you check all of these —
Past life because I no longer identify myself with the person who wrote them. :)
I am a bit calmer and collected now.
I know my priorities & I do my best to address them.
I love hanging out by myself.
I enjoy myself.
I love me better now.
