“Emanating Ambiance” is a piece inspired by one of my previous artworks, “Mei’s Auraa.” In that portrait, I based the background on the aura I felt from my muse, and that concept also ties into this piece. The girl depicted in this portrait is a friend of mine, Kialaa Dunbar, and what I am conveying through this work is the colors of her aura I see surrounding her. Everyone has a specialized aura that engulfs their person, and I want to showcase that through my paintings.
