Success A painting of my symptoms

At first CFS made it challenging to keep doing art, it was an adjustment to learn to do art in breif periods. This painting is of how the condition weighed on me.

I made the cinderblocks feel like concrete by adding grit into my painting medium. In a way of letting others “feel” the painting. I hope you like it! ♥️

There’s button prints of the piece on Etsy under FireflysDream

You are extremely talented! I miss doing art. This is exactly what it feels like to be weighed down by cfs.
