pandas & self love

When going through a hard time we often do not take time to truly feel the emotions or look within for love. Self compassion is very powerful and often ignored. When sad we need to feel those emotions instead of burying them within ourselves. And we also need to feel kindness towards ourselves in those moments of suffering

By giving yourself kindness and understanding, we allow ourselves to heal.

I have recently been working on this art series during my travels and finished when I returned. I wanted to portray a girl going through a difficult time but with self compassion and self love she eases the pain. I used the panda as her inner self to illustrate self love through out the series.
