This illustration came about because I’ve felt overwhelmed by the constant change in my life.
The rising prices of groceries. The seasonal shifts, people coming and going in my life, the way it’s hard to sit with anything going on in the world outside of ourselves because the algorithm distracts you almost instantly. This idea that getting a haircut or buying things will fix the way that I’m feeling somehow when it’s not true.
I’m a Dublin based illustrator/designer. I get all my ideas on the bus, where I’m usually having a breakdown, talking way too loudly if I’m with my friends, or overthinking my life. This is not sponsored by Dublin Bus. My work can be found on my Instagram @goavajuice.
