among the stars collection
among the stars
among the stars is a collection about hope. before i decided to pursue art, i was doing work that didn’t fuel me and left me feeling burnt out all the time. i was beginning to lose hope in my career and wondered if things would ever improve. however, during this time i was drawing illustrations and writing to express the experiences in my day-to day life. doing this brought joy to me and became an escape for me during this difficult time.
one of my pieces of writing that came from this experience is a poem about finding hope among the stars:
Hidden Stars
The clouds hid the stars and I became lost
The fog rolled in and the world was grey
I was scared to face the bitter winds
I searched and searched, but the stars were out of reach
But as I walked, the clouds began to part
I heard the laughter of the stars
They danced and pranced with delight
They reached down and wrapped me in their arms
I flew so high, I felt so free
The night kissed me farewell as I opened up my eyes
I was greeted with apricity
Maybe, just maybe, there is hope among the stars
i was inspired to create illustrations that reflected this poem. i began to feel hopeful through art. it is my hope that this collection can provide you with a sense of hope and comfort, however you may need it in this chaotic world. i truly hope that this year has been treating you with kindness and brings you the strength to overcome challenges. i’m rooting for you!
