"If She Could Do It All, She Would"
Oil, Gouache, Charcoal & Image Transfers on Canvas
23 x 40 inches
We are wholeheartedly imperfect, yet endlessly reaching for the opposite as society never stops expecting this of us. Through the process of layering, deconstructing, scratching, and exploring imperfect marks upon the female figure, this mixed media painting is a portrayal of the anxiety womxn and mothers experience. The voices in our head and the building of pressure is all-consuming - inwardly and out. The work is a combination of documentation and improvisation as marks were made to track, keep a score of disquietude while most other components were created in reaction to one another.
