Being lazy is a joy. Chilling with a cat is double lazy.
Resting is important. We need it to restore energy, heal, and let the mind wander without pressure. Relax and quality time with animal friends or in nature is specially positive to human health. Sometimes, being lazy is a very important activity for our well-being.
This golden ink drawing is based on the woodcut "Laziness" by Félix Emile-Jean Vallotton, an art piece in the public domain. I was looking forward to painting the coziness of the beautiful blankets and cushions, and the relaxed playfulness of the model and the cat. Everything is pleasant and comfortable in this image, it was delightful to work on it. I think the low lights in multiple colours add an extra cute and peaceful feeling to it, and they reflect nicely on the golden ink.
I am committed to laziness, but I lack the practice. Maybe some cushions will help.

What is ASMR?
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and it is a form of paresthesia (that tingling sensation that happens on your skin sometimes, and yes the typical pins and needles that sometimes people feel on their skin are also a form of paresthesia), often starting on the head and moving down spine and rest of the body like a wave, commonly known as "tingles". ASMR is usually triggered by audio or visual stimuli, and the triggers are diffeernt for every individual person. Researching ASMR is difficult, but from the neurology side it is already known that the brain areas stimulated are the medial prefrontal cortex (associated with social behaviors) and the secondary somatosensory cortex (associated with the sensation of touch). Not everyone experiences ASMR, but exploring varied potential triggers and the work of different ASMRtists sometimes helps. Even people who do not feel "the tingles" may listen or watch ASMR content to help them relax, sleep, and even get into a meditative state as ASMR content is usually pleasant and peaceful, promoting resting and wellbeing.
