Veiling the Cognitive Distortion
From the collection She Who Feels Deeply
 
Hot, fiery reds are duking it out with cool, calm greens and blues in this painting—just like the emotional chaos battling inside your head. Veiling the Cognitive Distortion lays bare that exhausting inner tug-of-war: anger, confusion, disappointment, and the constant swirl of “What’s real, what’s not?”
The soul tries to shield itself behind a delicate veil of soft tulle and shimmering pearls, but guess what? That mess underneath? It’s still totally visible. Sometimes, no matter how much we try to hide our inner storm, the truth leaks through.
This one’s for anyone who’s tired of pretending everything’s fine when inside, it’s a whole damn hurricane.
 
Inspiration: Emotional conflict, hidden pain, and the struggle to mask what’s really going on beneath the surface.
