Welcome to the blog! This space is where art, autism, disability, and personal growth meet. Gal shares weekly reflections on neurodivergence, creativity, and healing—plus honest stories from her own journey back to art. Whether you’re an artist, a disabled creative, or just curious about living life differently, there’s a place for you here.

This space wasn’t born from strategy. It was born from survival.
After years of feeling lost, silenced, and too “much,” I found my way back to art—and finally got my autism diagnosis at 49. Everything changed. I stopped hiding. I started creating. And I built the kind of community I always needed: real, messy, healing, and wildly neurodivergent-friendly.
At AuRTistic Expressions, you’ll find art, resources, coaching, and soft chaos for when the world is too much. Come as you are. Mask off, heart open. 💛

After years of masking and pushing through a toxic work environment, I made the hardest—and most aligned—decision of my life: I walked away. Not later. Not when it was convenient. I quit, and I stepped into something better: building a space where neurodivergent and disabled folks are seen, heard, and honored.
