"Shell of Self #3," 2025, watercolor & gouache on paper, 29” x 40”, free domestic shipping
Meet "Shell of Self #3," the latest in my on-going art series, painted with watercolor and gouache. Here, the serene figure represents that 'shell' we all present to the world. But look closer!
Those vibrant blossoms still symbolize our hidden emotions, but this piece really dives into the Orbettes – my personified thoughts. They're more active than ever, poking and prodding the 'shell,' each with their own conflicting agenda. You know that internal chatter? The nagging doubts, wild ideas, little worries? That's them, all vying for attention inside our heads.
This piece is really an invitation: What do your inner thoughts look like? Are they all on the same page, or is it a bustling crowd of competing voices? Take a moment with this one and see what comes up for you.
