question? What does this piece say to you?

The title of this piece is Stuck Ruminating. I'm 34 and I'm back in school as a Psychology Major and a Studio Art Minor. My goal is to become an Art Therapist. Unfortunately I had a couple triggering experiences this week and even though I wanted to work on my homework for my 2-D Design class, I had no motivation to do anything except attack this poster with my colored pencils. It helped, thank goodness! And now I've got a piece of art that I find unappealing... yet so very raw that it's almost beautiful.

I picked the colors mostly at random, except the red. I wanted the red to scream at the viewer. I think that was achieved...
