Ok, so here is my blog!

I am writing this blog because I want to understand myself better as a person. I want to show both you and me some of the challanges I had in my life and these past years of studying abroad in England when being Swedish.

I hope that my thoughts and comments can help you in any way if you have had challanges and want to try to understand what you have learnt from them.

I reflect upon experiences and trying to understand what I have learnt from them because I believe everything happens for a reason, I often feel the need to find it when I need to deal with something difficult.

Hope this can help you get some insight and encouragement when you have challenges and if not, hopefully you enjoyed reading it anyway

Illuminative Art

Illuminative Art is talking pictures. The point is to draw your feelings. This is something I have a hard time with as I want to be as good as possible at what I do. It is important to challenge yourself and try things you are not good at which can be  hard so, I did draw on a white piece of paper. My feelings about this task is that I am hesitant, anxious but I am trying to think about the task having another goal than actually draw pretty. The picture below is the outcome. The white paper represents a new start, a new clean slate which will be filled over the year. The information sign and the feet represents that I am inquisitive. The feet are walking forward which means that I am ready to explore what the future has to offer. The clutter on the paper represents that I am a little bit all over the place and also as a rebel towards the assignment as I feel I cannot draw. So the drawing is like a child's drawing. When talking about my drawing in class Ryan said the clutter looked like lots of hearts which made me happy. And maybe he was right. That is up for every individual to decide.
