A few years ago, as I began exploring meditation and breathwork, something awakened in me—a sense of childlike wonder I hadn’t felt in years. That shift quietly reshaped my relationship to art, opening doors to creative expression I hadn’t explored earlier in my career. Drawing became a daily ritual, bringing calm, clarity, and a renewed spark to my practice.

During the lockdown, in a time of collective stillness, I turned inward—and found comfort in creating. It was in that quiet that O first appeared. Her image arrived fully formed: a rounded, resilient figure that wobbles but never falls. She represented balance, inner strength, and the beauty of simply continuing forward. I knew right away—this was the character I was meant to create.
