Hi everyone, I hope you're all safe and well.
I'm currently studying digital illustration and came up with the idea of visually representing how life with diabetes feels.
(I hope it didn't end up too heavy handed or distasteful)
What do you think?

Hi,

Would I be right in seeing diabetes represented in the graphics as a crashing spaceship dogged down by a hypodermic & the "horn of plenty" containing a fair bit of fructose..?

I've never been able to interpret arty pics but I can certainly appreciate the colours and effort, thank you. I think if I was asked to come up with a visual representation as to how it feels it would resemble a pile of you know what. x

Another with little eye, but " I likes what Iikes," type.:D

I liked it
Nice & easy, central to the eye,
Yet much to interpret.

The interaction from the meds as it races to lower the heat in the furnace,
as the horn of plenty, which like any garden of Eden tale, can overwhelm the best of intentions. Awaits to tumble it's bountiful load into us...

nice

Good skills
