Always the Artist, Never the Muse, 2025, oil on canvas, 40 x 30 inches
My work focuses on interpersonal relationships and how they shape you as a person. Through figurative drawings and paintings, I represent the relationships that have influenced my sense of self, my understanding of connection, and my life. Always the Artist, Never the Muse, reflects a period of my life where I yearned to be an artist’s muse; I wanted to be captured the same way my work captures the people treasure most.
