Time to begin telling my creative story with BTS.

I used to do a lot of calligraphy as a teenager, but at one point in my life, I dropped everything that brought me joy: art, music,writing...
Autumn 2021 saw everything come back to me. Only for 2022 to wreck me.

ON was the song that made me an ARMY. It's what I decided anyway.
Those lyrics were what I needed to hear to give me the strength to be vulnerable. And it was the starting point of a whole creative journey.

October 2022: I was diving at my rythm in the BTS discography, full random mode. Created a Spo acc and putting an all BTS playlist on random each day I don't know why I wanted to explore like this, but after a whole summer, I couldn't go a day without listening to their songs.
Two songs hit me on a particular level at that time: Make it right and Daydream, leading me to dive in J-hope mixtapes.
The 1st one is a more polished with a watercolor background, and the 2nd is a doodle done at work.

Winter 2022: the dive in the rabbit hole accelerated, and it scared me how in tune the songs were with my personal struggles.
Equal=sign popped up in my random playlist when I was wondering if my mindset was the right way to navigate in a world I didn't understand anymore.
I decided to listen to mono next...
And I wasn't ready. I think that it was at that time I felt THAT connection with RM. Haunted by the songs, my hand drew something I never expected me to for the 1st time.

#Indigo.
My first #BTS related purchase, the one that lead me to get a Spo Premium and learn more about streaming.
I cried on the drive to work listening to it. It held me through a gloomy December (car accident due to a boar, Christmas without family, burnout threatening to take over).
I love everything about this album. Everything.
And it was the start of me creating around the lyrics. These 3 were done at work, with what little art supplies I had there.
I just couldn't stop.

FACE
I was inspired as soon as the tracklist came up.
At that time, Jimin had made his nest in my heart: his dancing had caught my eyes but hud voice and personality caught everything else.
I was so hyped to discover more of him that I ended up participating to the art contest.
Me who was and still is insecure about sharing too much and not being skilled enough.

I'm dropping the mask step by step, and Jimin's voice is always inside my head, even through the hypnosis state I'm in during therapy
