In Hope, I explore the universal longing for connection, faith, and renewal. The imagery of hands reaching - one steady and one seeking-represents the human journey toward something greater, whether it be hope, faith, or a sense of peace. The butterfly, a symbol of transformation and spiritual presence, serves as a bridge between the seen and the unseen, embodying the delicate yet powerful essence of belief.
The work's open-ended nature invites the viewer to find their own meaning within it. For some, it may reflect reaching for God or divine guidance; for others, it could symbolize personal growth, love, or resilience. Through soft pastel tones and gentle movement, I aimed to create a piece that feels both intimate and uplifting, offering a moment of reflection and a reminder of the strength found in seeking.
With Hope, I wanted to leave space for the viewer to carry a part of their own story into the piece, just as I have woven my own into its creation.

Artist Statement: My thirties, as well as motherhood, have challenged me to face how I perceive my femininity and womanhood, and "Tomboy" is reminiscent of how I have come to terms with loving all the chaotic and various parts of me.

Artist Statement: The large majority of this piece is made using Gouache Paint while sticking with a primary color scheme. Some elements were added using acrylic in order to ensure opacity. The subject of this painting is an original character of mine in a more realistic style. I chose to draw my own character since, as artists, a lot of people get lost in replicating the real world. I think it is also important to create your own ideas and give them the same time and effort as any other project.
