This is the second part of the series. I wanted to make pieces about disassociation and the idea of occupying spaces that are ungrounded. I felt like it would have been easier to make something that was about depicting the disconnect, turmoil, or ambiguity of some of the sensations related to disassociating. But I wanted to make something more optimistic, for my own sake, and that was more challenging for my imagination.

I thought of a character and wanted to incorporate imagery t hat was more about getting clues that lead towards being more in the body, grounded, and more engaged with life. Doing that and learning more about how to use the watercolors and gouache.
