Highly textured Mixed Media (Wood Paper, Charcoal, spray Paint)

"Emotionally Not There" is a captivating portrayal of the tumultuous inner world from an artist's perspective. This painting, with it lighter brown tones intermingled with striking accents of black and one touch of blue, shows a raw outpouring of emotion itself. The charcoal and mixed media add textured layers that mirror the complex layers of feeling within. As I painted on this canvas, I was moved by the profound depth of emotion it conveyed. The tonal browns seem to encapsulate the warmth of safe moments, while the bits of blacks unveil deeper uncertainty. It is a powerful visual testament to the ever-evolving emotional landscape of a woman, inviting us to contemplate the intricate tapestry of her experiences, vulnerabilities, and ultimately, her resilience.
