I kept a beautiful part of myself hidden for a long time. Since accepting myself, I have continued to bloom, sometimes softly and sometimes like an explosion. The Bloom Radius series explores the stories carried by bodies and the meanings held by flowers.
Peonies, associated with bashfulness, gather across the eyes of a figure whose body fills the frame. He is fully visible yet still partly protected, filled with both strength and softness. The hot pink underpainting radiates around him like an aura, suggesting that taking up space does not erase the vulnerability of being seen.
Original painting
12×16 acrylic on cradled board
Prints
5×7 matted to 8×10
8×10 matted to 11×14
18×24 (image is 16×22 with a one-inch white border) printed on 100% cotton bright white paper. Will take extra time to ship.
