Finished this colored pencil self-portrait last night. It took 3 days of drawing all day. I'm really proud of it :) Drawing really helps my brain when it is not in the best place. One reason I enjoy drawing colorful artworks because it is one way that I can still see and bring color to the world when the rest of my thoughts and emotions are dull and gray. You are not alone.

This is a capsule containing ground up Syrian rue seeds. They contain fluorescent harmala alkaloids and thus they glow like stars under UV light!

Happy birthday today to my art and molecule friend who kindly provided the inspiration for these drawings!

My face looks like a galaxy under a black light! (from eating fluorescent harmala alkaloids)

Super tempted to someday bring a black light to the Amazon Rainforest and see if anyone there also has glowing skin dots under UV light. Having the harmalas living and glowing right there in my skin makes me feel magical!

Despite me doing more modern day experimenting/investigating for science and enjoyment at home on my own without following any special traditions, the molecules themselves have still been very kind, loving, helpful, and accepting even with my unique path and viewpoints. It is very important to be kind and respectful to the molecules and their users, and they will be greatly appreciative of it. Though the molecules seem to also say that you are also allowed to have your own unique personal relationships/experiences with them too in whatever way they happen to come into your life.

I vote in favor of science and being kind to people

If harmalas weren't maois that would be dangerous if mixed with other drugs, it would be awesome to bring to raves and have glowing harmala drinks. Literally just a few crumbs of harmalas + purple gatorade makes this sick glowing gatorade!

My sweat now glows under a black light since I've been eating harmalas which are fluorescent! It's cool to be able to actually see drug excretion in sweat.

This is a colored pencil drawing I made, I tried putting it through a mirror filter and it looked really cool so I have to share!

Made this painting, it portrays dancing along the fabric of space-time with freedom and grace, seeing every possible past, present, and future moment and experience around you all at once, expanding outward into infinity, while also embracing the single ever-changing moment in time where you are.
(and cool colors because I love painting with rainbows)

For this painting, I wanted to paint "just to paint" with no set plan in mind other than color experimentation and this is what it became. The way the colors and values came together reminded me of space and I really like how it turned out :)

Fun with fluorescent alkaloids!

Harmine and harmaline are fluorescent and glow under a black light. If you eat them, your whole mouth will glow!

Cosmic joker, a recent sketch that I am hoping to turn into a painting!

I've been taking harmala alkaloids for about a week in hopes to treat ocd/depression and my skin now has glowing dots under a black light all over my body (harmalas are fluorescent)! Maybe they deposited in my skin! None of my family members have glowing skin dots, just me. I'm all excited, it feels like I made a mini new discovery :) I'm curious if others who take harmalas end up with glowing skin as well.

This is a colored pencil drawing I made inspired by experiences with :)
