I LOVE ARTISTIC HUMANS!! Sorry for shouting. I have zero drawing ability. My Mom did. My children do! 🤬🤣 stoopid genes! Artistes do look at life in a divergent view. Normative is so Boring.

Yes indeed! I'll bet that you have more artistic talent than you give yourself credit for. The secret is to expand your personal definition of what art actually is. I honestly believe we are all capable of creating beautiful things. ❤️🫂

“too much”…or maximalist artist?

“Maximalism is characterized by its celebration of individuality, creativity, and self-expression. Unlike minimalism, which focuses on simplicity and restraint, maximalism embraces vibrant colors, eclectic patterns, and layered textures to create drama, energy, and visual impact”

Yes! Alex called himself a maximalist just the other day. 😁

Alex reminds me of my neurodivergent almost-14 yo, Onyx. Onyx is an animated arts-and-crafts project. Our home looked much as you described before we moved two years ago. Now it's their room that is a whirlwind of art projects-within-art projects. Honestly, I miss having it all over the house. I hope you two are feeling a bit better today!

I would miss this beautiful chaos if it weren't here, I'll tell you that much! Mostly it just makes my heart sing to see how much enjoyment he gets out of it. ❤️😊

Alex truly is gifted! Thank you for sharing. And Alex is lucky to have you for a mom, as you encourage his talent and his individuality.

Hope that you can get some financial help to replace what you have lost.
