Painting: The Writer's Life

I had an art call (i.e., a painting and chatting video call) with my sister recently, during which I attempted a painting way beyond my drawing abilities.  Oddly, all the strange, squashed dynamics ended up pleasing me in the end.  A limbs akimbo, half-faced writer wedged into a cramped space with a typewriter seems like an apt visual metaphor for the psychological discomforts of the writing life.
