I feel this to such a big level-
I am not writing this to raise pity or kind messages. It's my life, and I just want to be able to share it as someone would share about other problems and how it shaped them. Maybe raise some awareness about disability, how art is such a pillar to disabled artists.
The first time I learned about my chronic illness, which is arthritis, I was 12 years old, and it started with my right thumb. My first thoughts went to my ability to draw. I didn't understand at the time what was happening to me, so I would make one mistake : ask Google. And I saw all the worst scenarios that could happened, and all I could do is think about my ability to draw, my fierce passion, would one day be taken away from me. I was told that I would find a way to keep drawing, even if it was with my feet or my mouth. That I had exceptionally good grades and I could keep art as a hobby on the side! I wasn't reassured by that at all. I was actually looking for countries where euthanasia was legal, and claimed that if one day I had to rely on others, that would be my exit. At 12-13 years old. I entered high school and that was when the depression started to kick in as well as illness flares. I was still drawing and it was the only thing at this time that actually kept my head above water. I had a realization that if I had to live with this illness, I should live doing what I love the most : drawing. It knocks you out. You have to follow this spark wherever it will lead you. Especially when reality hits you with chronic illness and daily pain. I don't think I would have made this choice if I wasn't disabled. I would have follow what everyone around was telling me : keep it as a hobby. But hell no. Today, my arthritis goes further and still keeps taking from me, like my eyesight. But it's not what will stop me from my art. It will shape it. Being disabled made me stood up for myself and say fuck to people who wanted to control my life and actually embrace my art to the fullest. I may have other episodes of depression, I may question every choice I made after that, going back and forth. But I am where I am because I am disabled, not despite of it. When life takes something from you, you can find strength in the unusual ways. Never give up.

Will of the Winds, a digital painting by Zhillustrator. A weird ship is riding the curving horizon over a small village in a surreal, undular and windy sci-fi landscape. Huge clouds form majestic shapes in the background. There's an orange cat with a hat floating in the air. Spiraling into Serenity, a digital painting by Zhillustrator. A swirling magical realism landscape with spiraling blue beams and a ship appearing in the background, looking like it's teleporting using some form of spiral energy. A little house is nestled comfortably between spiraling trees, and a few swans are swimming in a nearby pond. Night on the Highway, a digital painting by Zhillustrator. A moonlit night scene on a bizarrely large highway with thousands of car lights going both directions. There's a hovering cat with a hat next to one of the cars. The Blue Hour, a digital painting by Zhillustrator. A blue and purple dream-like scene with an overgrown church sitting in a cloudy landscape. Wind turbines can be seen in the distance and there's a chimney pumping rain clouds out. A cat with a hat and a vest is lazily hovering around the scene.

Cover illustration for "Out of True" by Rien Gray. Two hands are holding onto a disintegrating sword, a dark forest in the background. A digital illustration of a character and her skeletal mount, half-heron, half-fox. The character, a priestess of the Guild of Mists, is in the middle of the sacred, pre-hunt rites. She's holding a holy amulet and a smoking censer. They're both in a misty marsh, the skeletal remains of past hunts at their feet. A digital illustration of two young women in a forest, kneeling before the wood carving of a female figure with bird wings. They've brought various offerings, apples, flowers, a doll made of wheat stalks, candles. A digital illustration of a feline beast prowling in a dark jungle. The beast's fur looks like moss and bark, and it has leaves and mushrooms growing on top of it. Its purple eyes glow in the darkness. Painted for Luminous Games.

An illustration depicting a tiefling standing in amongst a crowd, wearing regal clothing. He is glancing back over his shoulder with a smirk as he throws petals back towards his followers who gaze up towards him with adoration. Digital illustration depicting a scene from a classroom of magic users. One student at the centre attempts to control the unwieldy water based magic that rises up out of a book. She has an expression of shock as the magic backfires on her. Behind her is another student and a teacher who gazes on in disappointment. A purple shimmering serpent with feathery wings flies high in the sky. The sun catches from below, casting bright shadows across the curving form. Behind her are an array of clouds and coloured ribbons. Digital illustration of a woman rising up out of a river, the waves forming a beautiful dress made of water. She looks off screen with an expression of determination and holds a lotus flower in one hand. Behind her is a forest filled with glowing lights.

I'm starting to realise that conformity works exactly like perfectionism.

In the sense that... when we allow other people to set the standards or ideals for our actions or expressions, which we then have to conform to, it's never going to be something we're capable of reaching

Two women sit posing for what looks like a goofy photo shoot. The human woman, dressed in leathers typical of a rogue, or barbarian, sits upn a wooden sign with the painted text "Wecome, to ye Enchanted Forest" The centaur woman stands behind her making bunny ears with her hand above and behind the human woman's head. The forest surrounding them is creepy and filled with twisted trees and unbeknownst to them, a set of huge red eyes and teeth watch them from within the forest. The title is painted to look like creepy purple roots emerging from the grass infront of them It reads "Villains" Two fantasy characters from baldurs gate 3, shadowheart a half elf, and Lae’zel a Githyanki sit back to back holding hands in a dark moody scene. Shadowheart is knelt in the dark gloom of the shadowfel knelt on the dark circle of the symbol of shar, grasping shar’s spear, chains and dark clouds swirling around her. Moonlight pierces the dark and shines down on her face pulling her gaze up. Laezel sits at her back in the astral plane, holding her large Githyanki silver sword in the other hand, the tip coated in blood. She looks back at shadowheart, her face turned to glance over her shoulder. Ahead of her in the astral plane there are two dragons flying amongst asteroids chasing a comet. an illustrated banner, the text in the middle reads - in purple "DnD Versus" with the subtitle in orange underneath "Part of one" - the title is against stylised flame, on the left a screaming skull breaths the fire across the image that shapes into a phoenix framing the other side of the title, the skull and phoenix face one another. An illustrated young adults novel, featuring a purple horned dragon looming over two teens, back to the reader but facing the dragon down. Both wielding magic. The girl on the left, both hands forward with white and purple magic. The boy on the left, fist clenched with fire magic. The dragons tail is encircling them.
