These days I feel most grounded in myself when exploring nature. My identity is strongly tided to appreciating the world around me and sitting in its tranquility. The background is rocks at low tide, representing my love for the ocean and all of its critters. The flowers and clovers are from pictures I’ve taken on walks. The photo of myself is a selfie taken at Padilla Bay, my smile seems to only reaches my eyes when surrounded by water. The yellow scribbles behind my head are the thoughts and stresses of my life that get calmed by soaking it all in.
