For those who don't know, about six weeks ago, 4 drunk assholes showed up on my front porch in the middle of the night while i happened to be out having a cigarette. When i asked them to leave the four of them literally beat my skull into the ground, repeatedly choked me into unconciousness, and repeatedly punched me and stomped with boots on my face, finally leaving me for dead in my own front yard.
A month and massive reconstructive surgery later, i have been unable to get myself to draw or paint anything since until today. My wise friend told me to "paint the pain." It will be a long time before i can paint "pretty" pictures again, but i did this. It's like Picasso mashed with Ralph Steadman or Dave McKean, but this is What's Left right now.

Wow! That is indeed a bleak way to start off a blog. :(
I wish you a speedy recovery, inside and out.
*hugs*
Thank you all for the kind words. I wish i had better news. At this point i'm healing well physically. Can't say i'm healing well emotionally or mentally.
