illmarks

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

Large dark marks cover the head and lower abdomen of a silhouette of a person printed on a beige bookmark. The dark marks are deep purple, with bright yellow edges and blue particulate. Many dagger-like triangles point in at the gut mark, like giant stabbing feelings. The top of the head is slightly aflame, and the lower right ankle has a small pulse mark with a question mark. The outline of the figure is shaky.

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!
