I Create Black Pen Patterns To Cope With Stress

Digital age is normally related to stressful situations. People got used to manage them in different ways. Some do yoga, some prefer to knit or sew. I came up with another idea. In fact, I started creating black pen patterns that turned into wonderful hobby then. My profession is pretty stressful and in order not to burst out I needed to find a way to calm down.
 
My friend told me to take up painting classes. I followed his advised but very soon I got bored with all the monotonous technics. It's time to try something new. But, you know, I don't have a lot of spare time to practice hobbies. I was really inspired by mandalas - Indian patterns with special meaning. I don't actually believe in stuff like that, but the patterns themselves were amazing!

Come on, everyone likes cats&music!

Concentrating on creating a pattern is a peaceful way to manage stress

However, the dark side is still there

Sometimes I feel so depressed that I would be happy to quit this planet

I need more then 2 ink pens to create one pattern

Our inner world is way more fascinating than the way we look

Though I don't believe in meanings of mandalas, I do enjoy Indian patterns

Recently I have tried to use colored pens to make the craft more living

This painting reminds me of mandala

We all would like to live in a greener world

If you have to manage stress almost everyday, there are loads of ways to deal with it

This is my first attempt to develop an individual stile

At first wasn't sure simple painting would help to calm down

Whenever I feel anxious, I start drawing
