"Lupus"
24" x 36" oil..........(for my wife)
This is an abstract representation of the physical restraints of "Systemic lupus erythematosus ", a chronic autoimmune connective tissue disease that can affect any part of the body.

I know someone with Lupus and I think this is a very good capture of the emotions and constraints that can surround a life living with this condition.

Re: "Lupus"
I think Jon's word "constraints" is perfect. You did a most admirable job of depicting this terrible disorder--very heartfelt. Great job on that.

Re: "Lupus"
It is well designed and certainly makes me feel more for lupus sufferers than any words might.

Amazing! The fatigue, weight of illness, and anxiety are all there.
