This was a piece I made on yesterday's art therapy group. We were supposed to just scribble a little and find the image within the scribble. Then, we were going to write down a story about that image.

I think that this piece is a testament on a part of my creative process. When I usually make something and I put my heart into it, I love making stories and just building up characters. And the way I build characters is just try to make a background story for them. I love doing that and I usually do that by finding something very individualistic about that person and just bringing it out.

Which, I guess, is a testament on my interest and how much value I put on people and human beings. I am a graphic designer because of my massive interest in understanding people and what stories they have to tell, what is it that they need to communicate.
