Thanks for sharing a part of your background and how you became involved in LMAC. It's truly inspiring!
As someone who has recently delved back into art (again), I can relate. I say "again" because I used to do a lot of drawing as a kid, but then I took a long break before picking it up again. For me, art feels like a form of escape—whenever I create, I tend to pour all my focus into it. It's as if drawing allows me to silence everything around me.
I'm not sure if I'll feel the same when creating a collage, but I'll give it a try soon! :)
