If you could read my mind

Since I was showcased last time, I was motivated to enter Jazzas challenge again - it's quite fun :)


This time, it's a self-portrait. The portrait itself is drawn digitally, the background is acrylic on canvas and the letters are pencil on paper. I love to draw very abstract, when I work with canvas and I try to draw mostly realistic, when I draw on my pad. I thought it would be fun to combine it in a surrealistic way.
In the end, it took me about three days. :)


It shall represent that paralyzing feeling, to be trapped in your own thoughts and just can't say or do, what you want to - introvert-problems, i guess... ;) You see, the piece is a bit personal a personal one. Hope you like it :)


P.s. You might can not read the short story in the background - I wrote in in german. As you can see, I'm not a native speaker^^
