Bashful
Covered in dew, this bashful Daisy's petals slowly unfurl in the warm sunlight. (Leucanthemum vulgare)
Embarrassment can be caused by either negative or positive feelings. Shame and pride both cause the same chemicals to be released - Catecholamines. These chemicals increase heart rate and blood pressure and increase muscle strength and alertness. This can cause feelings of overwhelm or exacerbate anxiety. Understanding this chemical process may help with accepting praise or seeking help when needed without shame. Creatives in particular through the vulnerable nature of sharing their work may experience this sensation often. The Tezos ecosystem creatives offer a network of support and solidarity that is beautiful, as on full display through events such as #tezos4tezos. It is an honour to participate and share in the development of this space with the community.
This piece serves as both a #tezos4tezos piece, but is also a collab fundraiser for the Teia Community Donation wallet for the Teia Fountain, so that new artists without the means can start their artistic adventure with this community - like me.
This piece is for fundraising purposes.
