@t4tkress Don't feel bad for basing it off of your own trauma.
I do the exact same thing with my Kress art. As long as it doesn't trigger you / harm you when you draw it , there is no harm in taking inspo from things that actually happened to you.
If you ever see fully rendered digital art from me , that ISN'T me.
I literally draw on my phone with no pen pressure but I don't have my watercolors with me now :/
