I painted this after cutting my hair short. In the portrait I'm holding what I shed, sitting at ease, while a paler version of me fades into the glow behind. It isn't a painting about loss. It's about the lightness that comes when you stop performing someone else's idea of who you should be, and start becoming who you actually are.
It's about freedom, reinvention, and the quiet confidence of taking your image back.
