"Woman" is more than a portrait - it is a declaration of personal evolution, resilience and artistic freedom. Inspired by my daughter yet shaped by something deeper within me, this piece reflects the vibrant, multifaceted nature of femininity - joyful, wild, confident, uncertain, grounded and alive. With each brushstroke, I confronted my own doubts and learned to trust the process rather than race to the outcome. Over two months, she became an old friend, a mirror, and a symbol of what it means to show up unapologetically. The vibrant textures and playful bubbles are not only visual elements - they are metaphors for the fluidity of identity, the beauty in pause, and the strength found in softness. This work marks a turning point in my creative journey, where validation no longer comes from the outside but rises from within. Woman is not about perfection, she is about presence. She is about honoring the self, embracing the layers, and standing firmly in the magic of being exactly where you are.
