This painting celebrates womanhood.
Despite the challenges we face, we're capable of incredible feats. Monthly cramps build our strength, preparing us for the miracle of nurturing life within and giving birth. Now, in menopause, aging brings changes like weight, heat waves, aches, mood shifts, and sleeplessness. Initially tough, I've come to embrace it as part of aging. Grey hair shines, new curves are loved, and hot flashes become a stylish accessory.
In the artwork, a natural woman embraces herself confidently. Comfortable with her form, she's proud. Calm and content, she's surrounded by delicate white flowers—each representing her potential. A distant butterfly symbolizes growth. The painting's depth and softness are crafted with loose brushwork and layers, using acrylics and oils.
"Embrace your Beauty" aims to inspire women to take pride and happiness in themselves.
