I recently bought a bike and I just LOVE riding it! I only go out on little journeys so far but it feels like pure freedom! This is my actual bike but I am not that cool xD

A Damn Tiny Zine!

To celebrate the new series of #TwinPeaks (and also how much I enjoyed watching the original eps recently) I made a little pocket book of drawings inspired by the show. Frumpy ‘90s fashion, a fish-in-a-percolator and lots of doughnuts.

You can pick one up from my shop for a tiny £2 >

Emily’s watercolours 🖌️

Dani is an animator and she sometimes animates calming scenes to feel better! Is there anything more lovely than a bubble bath?

Dani paints watercolour birds to focus on something. Birds have helped a lot!

The cover for ‘Bird Brain.’ That’s me that is, trying to spot the f*%$ I give!

Pretending to be OK is exhausting. Sometimes you have to just wait x

I lied about my symptoms for so long, because I was so truly ashamed. When this page of Worry Wart was released online, I can’t count how many ‘me too’s!’ I received! You really are never alone xxx

Recent events and worldwide news can so easily throw us off track. 

A page from Emily’s ‘Brain Shoodles’ available soon!

This is one of the pages I remember the most from Worry Wart, and I cite it often. It was a really good example of using the comic to help me, long before it helped others. Thinking about the scene in the supermarket with the goal of drawing it reframed the memory for me. I now remember the cute cartoon far more vividly than I remember the panic attack. I still think of it almost everytime I have to go to Asda!
