Artist's Comments

Hide your pain behind a smile. Everyday I smile and pretend to be ok, this shows how much I have to hide behind a smile and how sometimes it all starts to leak out.
I may redo this...

here's a quote I love, I find it describes me.
"We are male and female. We are artists, athletes, students, and business owners. We have depression, DID, PTSD, eating disorders, borderline personalities, bipolar disorder, or maybe no formal diagnosis at all. Some of us were abused, some were not. We are straight, bi, and gay. We come from all walks of life and can be any age. We are every single race or religion that you can possibly think of. Our common link is this: We are in pain. We self-injure. And we are not freaks."

indeed,and isn't it weird that more and more people self-destroy,slef-injure themselves?from my point of view it is a thing of the modern age that drive people into doing it... and yes,at one point or another it will leak.The thing is,we need to do the things that bring us inner pleasing and peace every day and even if it's hard we have to stick it in till the better times arrive.After all it may be the balance that left uncontroled is playing by itself.
It's really strong what you say :) and i hope that's some good paint
