Art can be very emotional and stressful... Part 2

So I have personally been going through a lot lately and it was really starting to affect my artwork and my outlook on life. I was getting to my lowest of lows. There was even a week where I didn't pick up a paintbrush. It was awful. Not to mention my Fibromyalgia was hurting me severly.

I decided, with some encouragement from my professor (Thank you Sisavanh!) , to paint my pain in emotional abstract pieces. My goal by the end of the year is to have pieces that are so emotional that the viewer can grasp my pain and immediately understand what the piece is about without ever having to read the title.
