Borrelia Koiby *Matriart

Traditional Art / Mixed Media / Emotional

prismacolor pencil, watercolor and acrylic

I drew this for a woman who agreed to provide me with her health services in exchange for an original peice of art. She does a certain kind of deep massage called rolfing), it's painful but effective in loosening up stubborn muscles.

She wanted me to draw something 'oceany', so I drew a fish that has hand-like fin structure representing her profession, the moon which controls the tides. The eel-like shape of the fish's body reminds me of the lyme disease-related bacteria borrelia burgdorferi but they are also spiraled and the fish is not.

Very pretty. I like the eyespot on the tail and the color palette you used. Did the lady you drew it for like it?

Thank you. Yes, she was very happy about it.
