THE HIGHLIGHTS
My Favorite Works At the Moment

The Daughter of the Son of Man, 2023, Digital Painting: Procreate
"The Daughter of the Son of Man" playfully engages with René Magritte's "The Son of Man," transforming the iconic apples into a whimsical nod to the complexities of portraying the female form. The halved apples, interwoven with yonic imagery, expose the main character in a cheeky commentary on societal expectations placed on women's bodies. The painting navigates the paradoxical demands women face—encouraged to embrace their beauty while being subjected to contradictory standards of modesty. By infusing Magritte's surrealism with a contemporary feminist twist, the piece challenges conventional representations of the nude female body, inviting viewers to reconsider societal norms and celebrate the multifaceted nature of womanhood.
The Garden of Sensitivity (Where Everything Is Felt At Once) - 2022, Digital painting: Procreate
"The Garden of Sensitivity (Where Everything is Felt at Once)" is a modern interpretation of an altar-like triptych, drawing inspiration from the rich tradition of religious paintings. In the spirit of old art history, this piece pays homage to the emotional intensity experienced by highly sensitive individuals. Much like the classical depictions of sacred scenes, it explores the sanctity of emotions. The discovery of being a highly sensitive person brought comfort and validation, transforming intense emotions into a garden where feelings can be embraced without judgment. This piece serves as a contemporary testament to the enduring dialogue between art history and personal revelation."
Healing Your Inner Child (With a Cry and a Teddy Bear), 2022, Digital painting: Procreate
Healing Your Inner Child with a Cry and a Teddy Bear: This work explores the necessity of vulnerability and self-compassion. In this artwork, Bee, burdened by her emotions, is depicted beneath a giant version of herself shedding tears of deep sorrow. Bearie, the bear, observes with gentle confusion, symbolizing the support we can seek during moments of vulnerability. This piece reflects the concept of the "cry-it-out" method, usually associated with infants but relevant to us all. Just as parents adapt it to help children process distress, we, too, must allocate time to feel and heal. It's an act of self-compassion, preventing our souls from drowning in sorrow. "Healing Your Inner Child" invites viewers to embrace vulnerability, let the sadness wash over, and acknowledge that healing and strength emerge from confronting inner tempests.
