It’s raw. It’s a record of some of my feelings in the month of September and it’s just one painting. I felt a little hesitant to share because I don’t like the idea of it being interpreted as my permanent state of mind. Cause that’s definitely not the case. I’m posting because a friend encouraged me too, and because not everything‘s perfect.

Witness. Gouache, collage, walnut ink and pencil on gessoed panel. 12” x 12”. 2026.

I'm seeing something delicate or intimate or perhaps even wounded in your mouth. My eyes went right to it: the fullness, the fleetingness of vulnerability. So terrific!

This is a great post. It's hard to do a self portrait! It's hard to really be with yourself like that. You have done a good job in the piece you produced and in talking about it. ♥️

Excellent post about this. I backed out cause I didn't wanna look at myself right now.
