Portrait of a Panic Attack

Portrait of a Panic Attack

I set up my phone after my shower because I felt a panic attack coming. I took a screen shot and painted over it in Procreate using the brushstrokes and line work to try to communicate emotion. I allowed some of the original photo to bleed through a bit for some subtle texture. I am very interested in documenting the vulnerability around mental illness and how relationships are affected.
