Hello,
Who am I? Not sure how to answer that but I can tell you about some of my characteristics. I have a 33 year old female body which was born in India. I studied engineering but switched to illustration around 7 years ago. I suffered from ME/CFS but healed myself though I still have to be careful about my energy expenditure. I am interested in good health, spirituality, consciousness, and philosophy. I like the practical aspects of these more than the intellectual debating.
I tend to be pretty serious on the outside but I'm goofy when I relax. I find it difficult to write about myself, to show myself to others. I've kept myself invisible all my life. But recently, I've started being more open. There's a lot of reluctance and stiffness which you might feel in this introduction. Maybe I'll write another one when I'm past these blocks someday.
I have several skills: drawing, lettering, typography energy healing, eating healthy, yoga, meditation, graphic design, product design, writing. Here's me in a jacket I designed.
Lately, I'm debating going back to engineering to have a steady income. I'm a bit worn down from the constant uncertainty of being a freelance artist. I feel like I'd love a boring job as a break.
Not a boring job:

At the same time I really want to develop my artistic expression further. Only recently have I started liking what I make. This happened because of a lot of solitude, good food and relaxation in my new home in the mountains.
Lately, I'm back in the city to take care of my brother and father who have some health challenges. For myself, I've been working on the Inktober challenge and doing the Wim Hof 10 week course.
Here's my Inktober post for the day:
Who am I though? I don't know how to answer that with words.
Thanks @surpassinggoogle for the Untalented Contest that's pushed me to make this introduction post.
Hope you enjoyed it.
Love,
