Dimensions: 40.64 X 55.88 cm; Media: Ink, acrylic, and gouache on paper; Country of origin: United States; Year of creation: 2025; Description: In this piece, I set out to create a portrait defined by bold, vivid colors—one that encourages the viewer to slow down and take in the work as a whole. The birds act as guides, leading the eye across the paper. Through their movement, the viewer is drawn to the emotional presence of the central figure and the intentional rhythm of the composition. My goal is to create a visual journey—one that unfolds gradually and rewards sustained attention.
