How did motherhood change your creative practice? Motherhood, but more specifically, single/ divorced/co-parenting motherhood changed my creative practice dramatically. The divorce grief was prolonged and profound, but I needed to move on and figure out my new normal. Art and comics became one of the resources that helped me to move forward. In the last few years, I started noticing small hilarious and sometimes difficult moments in my life with my kids and recorded them. The comics on parenting, which started as a personal project to help me process my situation, quickly became one of the most meaningful projects I have ever done.
Oof. That last bit on spending your time creating vs whining is CONVICTING. Thank you for sharing, Katia!
