In creating this piece I delved into the fusion of fantasy and the mundane, using vibrant colors to create a sensory experience. The subject of the painting is in a state of serene peace, but also presented with a choice. She has closed her eyes to connect with her senses. I chose vibrant green skin and purple hair to showcase her vibrant personality and contrast with the lush citrus backdrop. This piece is an invitation to embrace the sweetness of life and choose to embrace your own emotional intensity. It is about finding peace and enjoyment in everyday moments.
