"Trust Yourself", 24"x30" acrylics and graphite on canvas, 2023

Can an abstract piece embody the feeling of operating at the edge of confidence and the unknown?

My life feels like a structured chaos, and I’m here for it. With this artwork, I painted how self-trust feels like for me: having a clear idea of what I want and crossing multiple detours to get where I wanted to go. Despair, vulnerability, hope and trust are entwined to create beauty.
