Burnout

This piece for the Burnout theme was inspired by all the stress, anxiety, and uneasiness that online learning can bring to teenagers our age. We always need to take at least a few moments to settle down, and breath. Taking it slowly may not seem the most convenient, but for our mental health, taking even a short break can have positive effects. “Just keep breathing” seemed like the perfect words to capture the feeling portrayed by this artwork. As for the process, I used my iPadPro, Procreate, and Apple Pencil. I used warm colors on the outside because these colors tend to trigger attention, just as stress and anxiety do in our daily lives. In the middle/inside, I chose to use cooler colors because these colors represent peace and harmony.
