'ART HEALS': a collection of sketchbook illustrations

 Hello!!!! Today I'm having a crappy day, but I'm still super excited to share a series of illustrations and doodles from my sketchbooks with you. I've named this collection 'ART HEALS' because I want to highlight the importance and healing nature of art and how simply drawing whatever I felt or thought turned out to be incredibly powerful. 

Initially, I thought I'd write a little explanation for each illustration, but if I tell the meaning behind everything, where's the fun? However, I will offer a brief description for some context. Feel free to interpret them however you want, and I hope you enjoy!

All of these illustrations where drawn by me, Paula Álvarez, during 2022 and 2023.
