Hey Beat,

 

A pretty rough week! Physically and even more mentally. Dark thoughts and obsessions abound!! It's hard to see the light, but holding onto hope!!!!

 

Hope your windows become more common and waves are less and less!  :thumbsup:

This is genius. You are very talented!

Great drawing; wish this didn't take so long :-[

Wonderful drawr-ring, vaartist, and I love the reference to Tom Petty. It's amazing how often his lyrics and titles have come back to me during this process:

 

"I won't back down"

"I'm free free-fallin"

"Into the great wide open"

"You don't know how it feels...to be me"

"Learning to fly, but I ain't got wings"

 

I'd like to request a Tom Petty inspired benzo-withdrawal drawr-ring series (kidding, but it'd be awesome).

Thanks for all the great feedback guys! So glad these drawings can bring some comfort and smiles as we go through this ordeal! 🙂

Absolutely amazing! I can relate to evey single drawing. I love the dog, because our fur babies suffer through this with us. Such talent. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and gifts.

Thanks Redpeach,

 

So glad the drawings resonate. Often think my dog is not really a dog. He's an angel sent from God to be my rock and voice of reason through this hellish experience.

 

Best, :smitten:

You are very talented. I assume this is your job? Are these published in some paper/mag? If not, should be.
Posted

Thanks guys! Yes, this IS my job, but this personal stuff is more like my therapy and hopefully something that may bring comfort and possibly a smile to everyone who is going through this hell!!!

 

Looking forward to healing for us all!!  :)

Brilliant drawings. They resonate so completely. Please keep them coming.

Vartest these are just brilliant so I’m bumping them up to reshare!! I think I’m healed enough to even show my family and hopefully get some smiles.  You’ve just made my day brighter;  I hope you’re getting some light at the end of the tunnel and regular windows (‘love the window one’) xxx

Thanks Kristina,

 

So glad they bring a smile and you are healing! This is a crazy journey.

Hitting bad wave right now, but I’ve been here before.

 

Praying for windows and healing for all of us🙂

 

Best,

Va

Great drawing!! I love your work. Sorry you're suffering right now, but good that you can see that you've come out of it before. I am starting to trust my better baseline even in waves. Take care!! Wishing you a breakthrough ASAP!

These are so incredible!  They make me laugh & I’ll be able to show my hubby so he can see that I’m not the only one.  Great visuals.  I will def but the book when it comes out!  What a great reminder of what I have been through & how hard I had to fight to keep going.  I’m nowhere near healed.  Maybe someday I hope.

You are amazingly talented and possess a real gift for capturing real life in a single drawing! Thank you so much for sharing your art with us. Best to you on a speedy recovery.
