Started a new series all about what it feels like to live with chronic mental health issue and how that can lead to us โperformingโ happiness for others. #art#painting#mentalhealth#arte#oilpaint#portrait
So I spoke to the subject of my latest figure painting. They mentioned that my depiction was being up some self conscious feelings regarding their weight. Iโm sorta torn because I always try to do an accurate depiction of peoples bodies, but I donโt want my subjects feeling badโฆ
I tried to be supportive and shower then with praise and kind words about their body. Not sure if I should apologize or notโฆ not that I feel like I did anything wrong. Any advice?
The newest addition to the Queer Bodies NSFW series. This time painted on a beautiful piece of recycled paper made by the amazing Dakotah West

Color is a form of non verbal communication. It is not a static energy and its meaning can change from one day to the next with any individual - it all depends on what energy they are expressing at that point in time.
