I'm an autistic artist who is in love with nature and showing you the world through my eyes. You will find here me speaking about autism, and inspirational nature videos, and of course some of my art.
"My usual state of mind is silence. " This sentence is what defines me completely.

beautiful! I love your aesthetic. I have a window by my desk but i have to put half-curtains because the sunlight bothers me too much. I love the light but I'm too sensitive until it moves a bit away. Also in the Winter i have to pull the blinds down because the sunlight on the snow makes me uncomfortable and is almost painful. I love your space and your artwork! 😊

I didn't speak til i was 4, I loved Lions (esp Aslan from Narnia books) I hated dolls but loved lions, i could go on but your story is so close to mine that it's a real gift for me.

I'm currently stuck in that state of suffocation with my job and living situation. I took a promotion last year while my husband and I have been fortunate to stay with family while we save up money for a home of our own someday. Even with the funds we've been able to put back, the state of the world and the Western economy in particular makes it feel like it's only a drop in the bucket. And I am very disenchanted with my job -- an extreme introvert and high performing individual contributor stuck in a leadership role because I felt that it would be irresponsible to not accept the elevated position. Now I'm miserable at work and taking steps to climb back down the ladder and find a different path to walk. Your videos are so calming and reassuring. Thank you for sharing them. 💕

You’re really a fantastic artist Ksana. But I notice that most of your pictures do not feature faces of people. Do you find that to be the case, that you more often avoid drawing faces or facial expressions? Could this be related to your autism?
@KsanaLesАй бұрын
Thank you! I'm not sure why you have such impression, I actually draw and paint faces 95% of time 🤔 Maybe check my instagram for more artworks, you can see it there ☺️

Thanks for the explanation. It’s based on the theory that people with autism may have potentially difficulty in reading facial expressions. But I can see from your drawings that you draw faces quite well. You’re a super talented artist - keep up the brilliant work!

I am 70 and lived my whole life not responding to what I felt/feel the way others did/do. I've been accused of/diagnosed as being depressed or anxious and medicated to make it go away which made me flat inside. I won't take them anymore because I reflected on my life's circumstances and realized feeling depressed and anxious were appropriate experiences. Life was sucking or wonderful. I had to learn behavior modification to keep my behavior in check and my mouth shut. Sometimes I feel like my mind is a camera and I record the apparent information of what I see without knowing how I am to feel about it.
