The Art Of Lounge

Lounging can be a time for reflection but also the anxiety-filled moments between "things" that can bring up insecurities, overthinking, shame spirals and the idea of being upset that you don’t even know how to lounge correctly!

Yes, this is a real thing, according to Instagram. If I am not on a beach wearing a perfectly "thrown together outfit" surrounding by beauty, reading, but also drinking coffee whilst doodling in my organiser and simultaneously writing a novel, then I am not lounging enough!

My comic takes a look at the brutally honest moments I have with myself during the day. Some good, some bad, for the most part, being totally preoccupied whilst attempting to "lounge." It is a work of 24 illustrations, and I have attached a few of them for you to look at.
