Environmental Success
2021
Acrylic Painting
This piece, titled “Environmental Success”, is an example of how our environment affects how we present ourselves. My goal while working on this piece was to improve my portraits and express myself in a new way. I made this piece because I wanted to express how we present ourselves based on the environment we surround ourselves in. The content relates to me and who I am because it’s an example of how the environment around us really influences who we are.

Acrylic
I made this piece because I felt like it really related to me and how I view myself. Using the frames really helped me show how I feel framed by myself and others. Using the huge difference in color also helped me to establish the differences in the parts of the piece.

Gender Euphoria
2021
Collage
This piece was made to show how wonderful gender euphoria feels. There can be many different parts of someone’s identity, and I wanted to show mine. Using the yin and yang symbols, I portrayed the feminine and masculine sides to myself.
