What is Confidence?

2022

In this graphite drawing, I challenged what we define as confidence and question what it truly is. Is confidence purely visual? Can you be confident without “looking” confident? In my final piece for my figuration drawing class, I investigated these questions by depicting two figures in the same setting but in different seated positions. With the blank environment, both figures are isolated in their own spaces to show how confidence is internal and personal. Though one figure may look more confident than the other, the viewer does not truly know if one, both, or any figure is truly confident.

Slow Down

acrylic painting on mixed media paper

11.5″ x 16.5″

2024

“Slow Down” is an acrylic painting on paper that shows my practice of finding joy and celebration in the moment. This piece invites viewers to focus on spending more time intentionally, recognizing the profound value in simple acts. The slowness of peeling an orange, the patience in making homemade marmalade, the care in hand-picking flowers, and the ritual of steeping tea—all reflect a deliberate pace. Through this painting, I aim to celebrate the beauty in life’s small, often overlooked details, encouraging a mindful appreciation of each moment and a deeper connection to our everyday experiences.
