Each of these five pastels was created in early 2023. I recall the quiet moments spent on the floor, surrounded by pastel dust and candlelight. In that unstructured space, I found solace during a time of searching, creating artwork that, in retrospect, represents the clarity and peace I discovered within myself. These works are not just a reflection of my journey; my hope is that they might offer a sense of clairvoyance into your own aspirations, whether artistic or otherwise. Each piece resonates with the stories we all share, no matter where we come from or who we are, reminding us of the power of art to foster understanding, connection, and love for the versions of ourselves we have yet to meet.
