Sep 13, 2023

It’s September, and people who watch me know I’m in the middle of a series showcasing tutorials and undiscovered artwork.

Art Feature: Inspire and Empower Resilience

Jul 12, 2023

This curated feature is brought to you by @AlexanderPaupoff Why do we fall? This isn’t just a question that echoes through Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy, is it? It’s an eternal, inevitable question that permeates our stories. We encounter challenges, face setbacks, and experience moments that test our mettle in the harshest ways. And, of course, we stumble and fall, sometimes even to our lowest. In such moments, we must bear the burden of our vulnerabilities, the sharp edges of our shattered dreams, and the painful sting of our disappointments. And yet, here we are. Spurred by an extraordinary power that will see us rise, time and again, in spite of adversity. Welcome to the first of four features by @AlexanderPaupoff dedicated to mental health awareness and the pursuit of self-care. Together, we’ll delve into the themes of resilience, mindfulness, self-care, and gratitude, essential to our well-being. (Follow @AlexanderPaupoff to see the rest of the features as they are
