here is a still-life i just did, i feel so conflicted about painting still-life, i'm kinda uninspired by the genre, but people seem to like the ones i do!

[Romeo]

your still life is great but paint what motivates you.

[zdilla]

I need to continue painting! with my depression it feels like my sense of self has been annihilated completely, my shame has crippled me completely, i must paint on because i can create beautiful works. There is some hope, it lights up at some moments. I can't work consistenty but i need to develop a more consistent art practice.

[Romeo]

THAT is amazing. I love that one!

I think you should continue to paint, I think it is great therapy for you

[zdilla]

Thank you Romeo!!
