Flame - Original on paper

From the daily art series: Heal to Heal:

Your body feels the heat from the fires in your brain. And when your body gets burned your brain learns to fear flame: I’ve been learning the hard way how connected our body and brains are. And the things we do to avoid getting wounded that we aren’t even aware we’re doing. The downside is, sometimes in doing so, we shut out the flame that sparks life in us too.
