About the founder

The founder of Fullheart Project, Nichapat Phonpisit (Claire), built Fullheart Project from the ground up in September 2024. Claire started posting drawings with positive and encouraging messages onto Instagram as a way to remind herself of what she needed to hear as she worked through mental illness. Having struggled with various mental illnesses since her early teenage years, Claire decided to use her experiences and art skills to hopefully make others feel less alone. Today, Claire is a highschool junior studying in Northern Thailand.

"Initially, I was mainly drawing to remind myself of all the things I needed to hear. But then I realized that if I needed to hear this, sombody out there might need to hear it too."
