Final drawings of 2011!

Here's some more sad artwork! I'm so thankful art helps me work through these things....

After you break up with someone, that connection you have doesn't just severe. Which makes things just more sad and confusing.  Especially if you're still living together.

Another drawing about that lingering connection, about mourning the loss of the other. (Randomly, the colors in this painting were inspired by designs on a couple t-shirts that I just associate with us)

The past couple weeks I've been hiding away a lot, because of a mixture of apathetic sadness and holiday blues and not wanting to talk about things. And this is what it felt like...I imagined I was pulling down the blinds and such around myself, hiding as much as possible in plain sight.

Break-ups make me reevaluate my life, and look for how the relationship fit into my journey.  I guess it makes me feel better to look for its purpose rather than focus just on its failings. And my relationship with Kurt helped me deal with a lot of my personal romantic issues. So this drawing shows my appreciation of that, thanks for helping me hang up more of my hang-ups. (These are a decade's worth of my hang-ups all together chronologically...)
