The Story Behind CanvasMind
Hi, I'm Wenxiu — the solo developer behind CanvasMind. I design, code, and maintain this space with care, hoping it can support others the way it helped me.
I'm a neurodivergent creator who often felt a pressure in my chest long before I could name it. Logic couldn't explain the wave, and words never seemed big enough. In those moments I would reach for colour—scribbling loose shapes until the feeling finally lived outside my body. A slow breath, a fresh line, a little space… and the anxiety softened.
That small, messy ritual became the seed for CanvasMind. I sketched a simple three-step flow: notice how you feel, breathe to settle the body, then create a visual that makes the invisible visible. Today the app lets anyone follow that path in seconds—no art degree, no perfect words, just a safe pocket for feelings that ask to be seen.
