***THIS IS A PRINT, NOT THE ORIGINAL***
"I Told Myself It's Just a Cold" is an original mixed media collage work that I made using stationary paper, ink and colored pencils on thick cardstock.
 
It is part of a larger series I am making about women's sexual, mental and physical health and well being. I began to create it after I became very anemic for a few months and was not taken very seriously by my doctors, given any tests, and had to diagnose and treat myself through it.
