#### Well they say the best cure is pets. For me it’s my cats -saying that I just realized I now have two.

#### I always imagine how was my life before them. I can’t imagine anymore my life without them being every single day behind the door when I come home, expecting us to come, give us love -or bites.

#### No special day today that celebrates pets but if you have one -or two, or how many- give them a hug and a kiss and give yourself a moment of appreciation for having them in your life 🐱

#### Sometimes running a small business is extremely exhausting. You are the one being the creative, the manager, the accountant, the administrator, the public relations officer and everything in between.

#### Sometimes you have to do more of everything else than being creative and actually do interesting projects, and that’s ok, it’s part of the process.

#### This illustration is how I feel lately with my work. I do so many things other than designing which makes me feel pressured and tired. I sometimes feel that I work so much that being a freelancer doesn’t pay back responsively to the work done. Most of the times I struggle to explain what my job is and I get rejected on projects because people don’t understand the work behind the price given.

#### What are your struggles?

## Let the music heal you ...
## It’s been weird lately..thinking a lot about work and the way of thinking around creative jobs. Are there any creatives here that feel weird about how things work in their field? How people perceive illustration or how much people don’t get what you do?

###### Microvinifications IV

###### Vouni Panayia Winery experiments with the indigenous grape varieties of Cyprus. Five (5) different varieties were assigned to five (5) different Cypriot artists. This is my illustration for the rare variety called Morokanella. A pleasure to illustrate the label for one of the series Microvinifications IV of the winery.

###### “Goddesses and grapevines – both feminine words in Ancient Greek – have had a prominent presence in the culture of Cyprus throughout the millennia. Female deities and wine were embraced, adored and worshipped by the island’s peasants and royalty alike. ‘Vasilissa’ wine 2020 represents the humble yet divine naked beauty of Cyprus across the ages”.
