"Rose chalice"

photo manipulation / digital painting...

all good consists of three, in my case, mind body and spirit. I was in rehab when I made this piece and that is where a lot of my motivation came from when making this. The burning bush inside the chalice doesn't represent god's miraculous power, but instead my own sacred light that kept me sober. The battle over my sobriety is a thin line between my battle between my PTSD, and they most often go hand in hand, and sometimes driving me to insanity. This art peice is a symbol of how hard I have worked towards fortifying my own free will to stay sober, help others, and be honest about where I am mentally.
