Gothic-styled catholic saint portrait of a young woman looking off into the distance. Her gaze is yearning, and sorrowful. Her eyes and cheeks damp with drying tears. Her chest is opened with demonic-like claw hands by cathedral stained glass doors, revealing a candle on top of a glass heart surrounded by golden flowers and thorns.
Her hair is wild and wavy behind her.
βPatron Saint of Dysautonomia (2025)β
This self portrait is representative of my chronic illness (dysautonomia - POTS). The halo references dizzy-like stars π« and the exposed flaming heart is the vulnerability I feel during doctor appointments.
