"Insomnia #3"
(3rd in series)
A sleep-deprivation painting by Kira Ayn Varszegi
Including the pieces in the "A Little bit of Insomnia" ACEO series, these are paintings that I've created during a sleep-deprived state lasting 30+ hours (usually longer.) Falling asleep is a challenge for me 1-3 times a week. Transient onset insomnia is a symptom of stress & anxiety disorders, and a side effect of the medication I'm prescribed to control Attention Defecit Disorder. I'm usually physically exhausted but mentally alert during the painting process, but my mental capacities begin to fail and hallucinations are more likely to occur the longer I'm awake. The styles/methods/mediums used in this series will vary depending on my level of alertness.

Some of these close-up views may be angled to show texture, sparkle, shimmer, iridescence, luminosity, and/or depth. The white background helps me digitally adjust the brightness to more correct levels. Differences in monitor setting might still cause minor discrepancies.
The artwork in this series is intended to be intimate, whimsical, elegant, honest, unique and fun. I take great pride in my work and I hope you'll view it in an artistic light, despite my unorthodox painting methods.
"Insomnia " is a series that experiences gradual style/media/technique transitions over time. This may occur as a result of necessity, a revelation, a whim, and/or experimentation with new elements and concepts. Please bid accordingly.
