Description
This took several days for me to color this very meaningful lineart drawn by Those who have been watching me know that I suffer from Fibromyalgia, and while I'm usually very good at dealing with it, this winter just kicked me left, right, and uppercutted. This has begun to affect how long I can sit to do artwork of any sort.I named this piece from Metallica's "One", yet another thing appropriate here (oddly enough, my absolute favorite Metallica song years before being diagnosed. Here's a verse from the song itself:
Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell
The hair is purple as it is the main color used for Fibromyalgia awareness. It's also a bit harder to see the watercolor style shading as I flat colored everything first (trying to figure out a way to economize the time I take to watercolor shade pics)
And now that I've done with this, my lower back has decided that I had enough sitting up time

I would like to use this photo on my blog. I would like to know if you are OK with that and how much it would cost me?

If it's for use here on DA you can most certainly use it with just a credit to omgitsacat for the lineart and to myself for the coloring.
