The figure's hands are drawn in oversized burgundy, with repetitive rippling lines surrounding them like pulsing pain. branch-like shapes continue up the arms and up the shoulders and into the cranium of the figure, resembling jagged tree branches, neurons, electricity, or something else.

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!
