# About me
Sketches that I do using my finger and an iPad to help me cope with depression and anxiety. I've always been nervous about sharing my drawings with others as it has become one of my best coping methods.# Comments

Does anyone know why my pictures have suddenly started uploading in poor picture quality? My I,age sizes used are the same I’ve always been using...

Addendum to previous reply today, thank you for watching me, it reassures me on some level I don't know how to express at this moment, but I'm well and truly grateful.

Happy Early Birthday, James Garden.
While we may disagree on some practical solutions to problems of say protecting our food supplies, as hinted at by some of your artwork, you do make wonderful quality work.
Sincerely one of your hopefully entirely too many fans;
Adalack.
P.S. The quality of your works is simply outstanding, please do keep up the brilliant quality work!

Happy Early Birthday, James Garden. I really do hope that I spelled your name right.
It bugs me to no end when I misspell anyone's name.
Oh, and as someone who deals with anxiety problems himself, I've found some good analogies in the "Frozen magazines" by "Joe" that he does- I buy them in bookstores, and it appears that, to some degree or another, Elsa herself deals with the same overall problem of anxiety- it comes out in her freezing things or making ice actually... we probably don't have it quite *that* bad, but reading a chapter of a novel (any novel) a day tends to help me for some reason, as does doing schoolwork.
I hope this input helps you out with your anxiety and depression problems- I know depression as Thrawn would know the Ssi-ruuk, or as Zhukov would know the Nazi Army, and their tactics, so yes, I've dealt with it... I always had an instinctive understanding that to get rid of depression I needed to gain some success or another. Perhaps the two "glitches" are intertwined, somehow; what do you think of that hypothosis, my neighbor?
I really do hope that this helps you somehow.
Sincerely one of your hopefully many fans;
Adalack.

Hellooooooo, thank you so much and apologies for my late reply. Today is the first day I've logged on in a couple of months. Thank you for your kind lovely words, I'll have a little look for the frozen magazines that you have mentioned. I used to read a lot more but found recently I've just wanted to draw as much as possible. I think I tend to have phases where I focus on one particular thing. I d find that getting lost in a world of drawing has had a very positive effect on my well being ☺️
Any ways I hope you're having an amazing weekend and you're filled with happiness, and once again thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to send me these lovely messages ☺️
Much love ❤️
James

So, I see you found my coverart to be very good, eh? Truth be told, I commissioned it and bought the finished product from another member here, whom I'd commissioned to produce it; that member's penname is Aakami, or was at least, and I'm very impressed by the quality work that person did for my stories.
I however am writing the stories for those fanart pictures, and the fanart pictures are my coverart to my stories- as I bought them.
I write the stories, and my partner in this venture made the coverart, almost all of the art in my posts was from that very person.
And, dare I say so, each of the pictures has a very interesting story behind it.
I hope you like the stories I've come up with, James Garden.
Sincerely one of your hopefully many fans;
Adalack.

I'm so happy to help! ^^
Thank you that means a lot to me! ♥ I'm located on Prince Edward Island, Canada. Most of my beach photos so far are taken here until I get the opportunity to travel more. The disintegration photo was taken at Thunder Cove Beach, Prince Edward Island (in case you happen to come here for a vacation one day haha ).
I really like your work as well! It has a lot of emotion and meaning to it. Keep up the amazing work!
Much love to you as well!

Thank you that's so nice of you to say. I was always scared to share my pictures, I think because they help me cope with the bad times and I get so lost in them, I was worried what people would think. Then I realise that they make me happy so that's all that all that matters
It looks like you live in absolute paradise!
Have a nice day

Aw you shouldn't be afraid to upload things like that! They're very relatable things, and in an artist community, it's really appreciated. I think artwork that really shows and lets you feel emotion is the best kind. I hope to achieve that in my own work in the future.
I just moved here last year so it does feel like a constant vacation in a sense! Haha
Have a wonderful day as well!

Thank you Just getting to grips with it. I'm looking for a platform to start selling artwork with all profits going to a mental health charity. Any ideas?

No worries at all, I haven’t received notifications to say people have commented so also sorry for the late reply.
So I donate profits to charities that help people suffering with depression, anxiety and other struggles of the mind. I suffer with depression myself but my artwork helps me work through the worst of times 😊
I hope you’re having a nice day wherever you are in the world 🙏😊❤️
