It’s been quite a while since my last self-portrait, so what better day to post it than on my birthday..

I must say that this painting also allowed me to reflect on how I currently feel, which is reflected in this piece itself. I’m my own worst critic (as most artists are), the impostor syndrome is strong on most days, second-guess everything I do, and it feels like my art goals are unreachable at best. It’s been a few mentally and emotionally hard years. But I’ve been learning to coexist with that darker side of myself as well as keeping it under control, instead of falling into the deep end and drowning in it. A bit of progress at a time. Fingers crossed that this year might be better than the last threeNov 5, 2021
