Reflections of Myself, 2023 

Acrylic on canvas | Unframed: 40 x 30 cm

‘In my artwork, I used acrylic paint and canvas. In my self-portrait painting, I explore the depth of my identity and inner thoughts. With a mix of bold brushstrokes and delicate details, I aim to capture the essence of who I am as a person. The composition highlights not just my physical features, but also my emotions, experiences and aspirations. I choose vibrant colours to convey the energy and passion that drive me. This self-portrait allows viewers to get a glimpse into my inner world and invites them to reflect on their own sense of self.’
