Why @dorkyflowerchild?
Dorky: I am cheerful, candid, raw, and hopelessly romantic. Frequently silly on accident. Butt of the joke vibes.
Flowerchild: This term originally came from the 1960s counterculture movement. It was often used to describe people who embraced idyllic values of sustainability, connecting with nature, universal love, and a rejection of violence and war.
I guess... I try to be nice and i’m a goof.
On a personal note, this project is part of my own growth journey to dream bigger and believe in myself to do the impossible. It grew out of a time where I was feeling burnt out from my consulting job and hopeless about my future. Making art helped me connect to the most authentic version of myself. I realized that the deepest form of self compassion is having the courage to do what your heart calls for and what you really want.
So I started posting my art online.
It's really scary admitting that I'm trying to build a life of my dreams. After all, I am still a full time consultant, and switching from the financial tech industry to art business sounds like a fantasy story.
