-My
image is a painting which signifies personal growth despite challenges.
-My image contains a
silhouetted woman, stretched towards an orange sunset, with sunflowers growing
around her.
-
I wanted to make my project personal, I thought compiling a bunch of
photographs wouldn’t completely capture a personal essence of myself. I am not
a great artist, but I thought it would represent me more if I painted.
-I am not a
great artist, clearly, but I believe when a person looks at my image, they
might just see a woman outstretched to the sky, sort of a dance position, but
beauty is in the eye of the beholder and someone may have many other
interpretations to my image.
-
I was inspired and influenced by Frida Kahlo’s raw vulnerability in her
paintings, to create a portrait that directly expressed me.
-
I first outlined my image with a pencil on canvas, then painted it with
acrylic paint.
-This
project represents my constant journey to self betterment. I believe that
growth is a choice, and I refuse to be held back by fear of change. I choose to
let flowers bloom in every crack and crevice of my body which pain has formed.
