acrylic paintings

Making a Mess, 2023

This painting was the main feature of my exhibition because it reminds me of how much fun I had making it. Painting this was the first time I felt like I was really letting myself have fun.

Say "Ahhhh!", 2023

Following Making a Mess, I wanted to further explore the same painting style with more characters and poses. 

Two-Piece, 2023

This was borne out of me wanting to go bigger with my art! I decided to stretch the painting out over two canvases, making essentially a life-sized portrait of this character's body. 

Birthday Girl, 2023

Inspired by a picture I saw of a girl with cake smeared on her face, this painting allowed me to experiment a bit with different textures and levels of paint thickness.

Moxie, 2023

This was me trying out mixed media; I used acrylic paint, Sharpies, paper mache, and hot glue. 

Alex, 2022

Portrait of Alex from A Clockwork Orange (dir. Stanley Kubrick, 1972).

Emory and Evyn, 2024

Painting of myself and my boyfriend. Made with acrylic paint and Sharpies; background done using Lego bricks as stamps.
