I sat on a chair, knees up to my chin, staring at a cup on my desk. It’s half filled with dirty water left over from an overworked paintbrush.
I’m in my office, surrounded by walls covered in splashes of paint. No other furniture is allowed in the room where I work. It stifles my ability to create. To go wherever the paintbrush takes me. And tonight it took me to a rather dark place.
On the wall behind me, a self-portrait, of a woman stretched beyond her limits. Bloodshot eyes. And a paintbrush, snapped in two for crooked smile.
