Self Portrait

36 x 36 in (91.44 x 91.44 cm)
Signature: Artist Statement The Act of Seeing Oneself: Every artist eventually turns the canvas back upon themselves. This portrait isn’t about capturing likeness—it’s about witnessing the parts of myself that don’t stay still. The shifting colors represent moods, doubts, courage, and the layers of identity we rarely show the world.

The figure emerges in radiant blues and violets, her skin alive with shifting color and light. Blonde hair, streaked with gold, pink, and lavender, twists loosely above her head as she pauses mid-motion. Her gaze drifts to the side—not at the viewer, but somewhere beyond—as if caught between thought and revelation. The background transitions from deep crimson to violet, framing her in an atmosphere that feels both intimate and introspective.
