The overall theme of these works is mental/emotional health, or the lack thereof. I personally have struggled with anxiety, depression, and attention issues. It’s sometimes hard to put into words how I feel at any given moment. These images do a somewhat better job of expressing what I can’t in words.
Each work has an Adobe Stock image at its base, most have other Stock images layered on top. These images were cropped, resized, and flipped. I also made use of hue/saturation layers, color balance layers, and Gaussian blur. Additionally, I used the horizontal type tool, as well as manual painting. I tried to come up with visuals that expressed what I have experienced in the past, and still experience at times. I tried to mix in a little humor with the Wheel of Emotions and Pick Your Poison, but hopefully the underlying messages come through.
