ABOUT:
Hiii call me Mandy or Kitty!
I'm an 18-year-old visual arts university student living in the countryside of Paraná, Brazil. I'm an autistic person, also diagnosed with ADHD, depression, and anxiety, but always giving my best to create my art.
I'm a very quiet person and have extreme difficulty socializing. I prefer spending the whole day in my room decaying rather than going out, and I'm generally much more sociable online than in real life. It's easier to talk to people when I don't have to look at their faces or be near them. Overall, I'm quite socially awkward, except with my closest friends, whom I value a lot. Most of the time, I don’t understand sarcasm very well and have difficulty making and recognizing facial expressions. I have hyperempathy because of my autism, and even though it may not seem like it, I'm a very sensitive person. Despite always using reason to make decisions and being very rational, I feel like crying if someone kills an insect in front of me.
There’s nothing necessarily interesting about me. I’m just a young person with problems, finding passion and comfort in art. I love art in all its forms —digital, traditional, cinematographic— and I sometimes like sculpting, but my main way of creating art is digitally.
I think a lot about everything: about society, about people, about the world. I like to observe, and sometimes this drives me a bit crazy and paranoid. I'm paranoid and anxious, but I think it's this madness that allows me to create art.
I hope you can find comfort in the strangeness and melancholy of my work. Everything I create and have created holds strong emotional value for me, and I feel this is my way of reaching out to those who are also misunderstood and often rejected by society. I love doing what I do, I love helping people, and I love my mini and strange universe with my mini and strange characters.
"Art is made to disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed."
OTHER FACTS:
- A stupid Femcel and a insomniac
- Sometimes I randomly cry in the middle of the night
- aaaaAaaaAuughhhhAAAA pain
- Chronically online
- I tend to identify with weird characters that no one cares about
- I'm pretty cringe, but I'm happy being cringe, so it's all good :)
- I have a pet cockatiel named "Lindinha"
- I still live with my mom and don’t know how to drive *cries*
- I'm afraid of mannequins for some reason

BOUNDARIES:
- I don’t mind people using my art as inspiration, but I feel really uncomfortable if they copy 100% of my style. My art style took a long time to develop and says a lot about me, my feelings, and my interests, so please don’t copy my drawing style...
- If you’re going to repost my art, it’s preferable that you credit me for it, something like (made by Mandy) or something along those lines.
- I don’t like seeing my characters being sexualized by others. If they’re adult OCs, I won’t do anything about it, but if they’re under 18, I will end up intervening in some way.
- Due to my personal issues and responsibilities in my life, I end up working at a slower pace, so please avoid pressuring me. I have a hard time working under pressure, and it causes me a lot of stress and anxiety.
