smoke signs - ball pen, pencil drawing

This one i created this week, in a momentum of emotional clutter... Sometimes you find yourself stuck in a loop of apathy, sadness and deplection, even more if you're aware, energetic and artistic (sensible); you can't just ignore the shitstorm coming your way, you gotta feel it and deal with it, and grow some tougher nerves :P For me, this has been a challenging year; i had many issues, some drama within family - my father had cancer 2 years go, he's better now, but at the same time everything changed; and this year, like 2 or 3 January, my brother disappeared, he had a psychotic episode, with all sordid non sense events, including showing his tushie to the police, leaving his car unlocked and parked in front of a football stadium and leaving wallet, tablet, keys... he eventually came back, later that day, and he spent more than one month trapped in a mental hospital, with other psychotic episode in between. Turns out he has bipolar disorder, moments of absolute euphoria and determination and moments of profound sadness and apathy. This drawing represents one of those moments I let go and trade part of that sadness for some peace of mind. Enjoy!
