Self-Love

"Mental health" and "wellbeing", to me, are the results of "self-love". In order to be mentally healthy, the best method is to love the present, love what I have, love who I am, who I was, and who I will be. Loving myself makes me feel like I am the most beautiful flower in the garden. I have been fascinated by the complexities of human anatomy ever since I started the journey of art, and it is the reason why I chose to explore the meaning of self-love through the combination of portraits and the flowery background. I worked with a variety of materials, utilizing watercolor and metallic paint, allowing each medium to contribute to the final composition. The process of creating this piece was my journey of exploration and discovery as I stepped out of my comfort zone and created a work that used stronger brushstrokes and stronger colors.
