One time in arts class we had to paint something in an impressionist style. The motive was free for us to choose.

I stumbled upon that picture again yesterday after not looking at it for about 2 years. Back then I didn't know I had AS.. I didn't even really know what it was.. but now I can't help but think that I unconsciously painted how a meltdown felt for me..

The picture can be seen here:

It's supposed to be meltdown? Whatever it's of it really gives a sense of Autism, it gives off strong feelings of isolation.

I don't see it... but I don't "see" much of the abstract world.

I'm guessing the background represents your feelings back then and you're the person in blue. I wish I could paint abstract and shading that well.
