(adding to the to do list)<br \/>\nBasically to create this I just sucked all the color out of it, made it into a two tone black and white image, fiddled with the ratio of black to white until satisfied, and then equalized it before saving it as three colors rather than two so it would maintain a tad of depth and allow the text I added to not overpower the imagery.<br \/>\nI know that sounds like a lot of stuff to do, but it literally took maybe 5 minutes including writing out the text.<br \/>\nAll the actual work for this was in the original painting. <\/p>\n<p>So, if you suffer from severe depression, hardcore anxiety, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or any other chronic malady of the psyche that causes you to battle your own thoughts&#8230; I know you can relate. I also hope some day you can kick their asses. You are not alone, and it is possible to shut those voices up.
