Ink on wood panel.
30x40"
To live is a concept so wild and free
Something that I struggled with
Silly me
I walked along the fire
Afraid to be me
Hand in hand with the devil
A detainee
It snickered and it snarled
As it held me undersea
I was chasing a way to reality
A spark set off
An inquiry
Asking why I was scared to be free
Like the swift turn of an ignition key
I had to find the best of me
A life long adventure it will be
But I will thrive, you will see.
- Emily Minor | MAINĀ
I am Mainā, a Toronto based artist, though I draw my inspiration from the world over. As an artist, I use both painting and poetry to radiate the euphoric madness that is life, lust and love. I lost myself to chaos for many years and through my art, I was found. With this artwork I aspire to help people see the true beauty in the chaos and madness that surrounds us, and to thrive from it. There is much serenity to be discovered in the vividness and intensity of the world's colors.
