Artist's Comments

Indirect because of a couple of reasons.
Self-portrait because of a lot of reasons. But it wouldn't be as fun if I pointed them out as such.

A lot of different stuff went into this including white-out film, french nail whitening nailpolish, glitter pens, pencil, fabric paints, glitter, golden stuff etc.

thank you so much :heart:

there's so much going on right now... it's amazing how doing art calms me down. it's such a strong sign it's what i SHOULD be doing, fullstop. :(

but anyway onwards we go.

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.

This is one of the most original figures I've seen, independent of the oleo of media. Lovely from tippy toe to last strand of that wonderful hair. The very subtle use of red brings the work to life. Congratulations, you captured a lovely confident complex woman in complete abandon - I presume that is you.
