[Image Description:

Here are three aerial views of a photo of rows and stacks of bookmarks that have a black base coat and background with individual colors drawn on each bookmark. The flower chosen is a rose; drawn with abstract line work. A swirl or spiral for the rose head, a single line for the stem, and petals with leaves that are drawn to show they have fallen off the core flower. Next to the bookmarks lays a service dog and a computer screen with showing star trek paused across the screen. This photoshoot took place in bed; now it's literally a bed of roses.]

My needs are met.

🌈Here are 200+ unique representations of how art therapy heals / transmutes / alchemizes. With a mini blurb I'm testing for the accompanying written piece:

"My name is Liv and I've been fully immersed in art therapy for the past 7 years. Through writing, photography, videography, fashion, chromotherapy, balanced color theory, digital quilting, and painting with acrylics; my activeness highlights how even with ptsd you can find peace / calm / and joy again especially in the most unexpected moments. Every piece of art adding to the conversation, through every brush stroke and every color combination, signaling "my voice shall be heard" + "may my pain be forever acknowledged". My favorites thus far. The sacred juxtaposition where love of self meets honoring loss + grief. With this digital portfolio, I hope to reach, call forth, and truly inspire. Enjoy!""
