There was a painting session today in the Southeast Tech dorms. At first, I wasn’t sure if I would go, but I decided to take a chance—and I’m so glad I did! Everyone choose a canvas and colors to create whatever they wanted. I went for a fun idea and painted a disco watermelon.

Since the color options were limited, I had to mix black, white, and primary colors to get the shades I wanted, which took some extra effort. But painting was such a nice break from staring at a screen. As a designer, most of my creative time is spent in front of a computer using Adobe software, so it felt amazing to create something with my hands instead. I love painting, but I don’t always make time for it. After this event, I think I’ll start again! As soon as I put brush to canvas, I felt so much stress melt away.
