this is what long covid feels like [CW: body horror illustration, occasional art nudity]

Outline of a human printed on a creme bookmark, adorned with ink. There is a large wave-like cyan shape over the lower abdomen. The armpits are dappled with dots, like hives or a rash. The same dappling is on the face and neck, especially tight on the cheeks in a butterfly-like malar rash shape. There are also some geometric pieces in the lower legs, that evoke a deeper, less dermatological pain.

Support my Health & Art!

Healthcare in the USA is expensive. If you are able, please support me on ko-fi, or share my ko-fi & art with others. I also use the ko-fi funds to get this art into the world--application fees, materials/framing costs, shipping to & from exhibits, and of course an occasional yummy matcha. Thank you!
