The Face I Carry, The Self I Know.
Featured Work: The Face I Carry, The Self I Know
A portrait of beauty, mystery, and becoming. Original Painting. Oils on duck canvas, 9x11 inches. Unframed.
The Face I Carry, The Self I Know is a richly symbolic portrait exploring themes of identity, transformation, beauty, concealment, and inner emergence. Both elegant and enigmatic, the work invites the viewer into a moment that feels suspended between self-presentation and self-revelation, between what is adorned, what is protected, and what is still becoming.
The central figure appears poised and luminous, draped in a richly textured floral garment that radiates warmth, femininity, and ceremonial beauty. In contrast, the dark feline mask held beside the face introduces a powerful sense of mystery and duality. It suggests the hidden self, the instinctual self, the guarded self, or perhaps the many selves we carry as we move through the world.
There is a quiet tension in the work between softness and power, refinement and wildness, visibility and disguise. The gesture of holding the mask rather than fully wearing it creates a compelling emotional threshold: a moment that feels less like hiding and more like transition. As if something has already been shed, and something more true is in the process of emerging.
With its layered textures, glowing accents, and intimate symbolic language, The Face I Carry, The Self I Know reflects my ongoing interest in creating work that is not only visually beautiful but also emotionally and spiritually resonant. This piece speaks to the process of becoming, of rising into deeper self-awareness, reclaiming identity, and honoring the many dimensions of who we are.
