Acrylic on canvas.

31x27x2"

Thrifted frame and canvas. Metallic background trying to make the front images "pop". Explores the relationship between vision of self and physical properties, personality vs body, strong vs fragile, power of mind vs physical strength. Naive treatment of subject with bold, joyful colours clashing with more subdued ones and subject going beyond the canvas size hoping to create distance between the viewer and the painting to increase the likelihood of thinking while watching, while still creating a balanced, enjoyable experience.
