Whether in an important meeting, engaged in a telephone conversation, or simply watching television with my family, I often find myself instinctively reaching for something to draw with - and draw on. This habit serves as a means to distract myself just enough to maintain my focus on what is happening around me, allowing me to remain connected while also indulging in my creative side. It is a way to balance attentiveness with a touch of personal expression, ultimately enhancing my overall engagement in these moments.
