Regain, Reclaim: Painting Series
Collection of Acrylic Paintings, 2019-2020

Regain, Reclaim is a series of paintings that honors self-care, art as a means of survival, and resistance. This ongoing series is an act of prioritizing self and releasing expectations placed on me by others and the expectations I place on myself. The act of investing energy into the series is an investment in my well-being, joy, and connection to my most authentic self, all while navigating the graduate school experience despite the disruption it causes. This series was picked back up in 2020 during the covid pandemic.
