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

oversized turqoise spine with copper particulate drawn down the outline of a figure. Pale blue, purple, and that bright patina turquoise scribble outward from the spine, covering the back and upper legs, as well as the sides of the head. The scribbles get less intense as they travel down the body into the leg and arms thankfully.

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!
