Living between art and multiple sclerosis
The Journey of Mature Acceptance
After 40, self-acceptance takes on a deeper meaning. It’s no longer just about surface-level confidence. Instead, it becomes about healing emotional layers; layers that require time, honesty, and courage.
For me, this journey brought both softness and strength.
The Woman Who Shows Herself Without Fear
I Am Enough was born from that truth. She is a woman who shows up without fear: her curves visible, her body unapologetic. The flowers that surround her are not just decorative; they symbolize her personal story, her growth, and her resilience.
Flowers as Symbols of History and Growth
Each flower feels like a chapter: the battles fought, the milestones reached, the self-love rediscovered. This artwork reminded me that real bodies are not meant to be hidden. On the contrary, they are meant to be honored, just as they are.
A Personal Experience of Transformation
Illnesses changed my body, and how I saw myself. However, that painful process also led me to a deeper kind of blooming. I didn’t just survive it; I created something meaningful from it. As a result, painting this piece became an act of transformation.
An Invitation to Radical Self-Acceptance
This artwork is an open invitation: to love ourselves with all our so-called flaws. Because real beauty isn’t found in perfection; it lives in truth.
And the more we show that truth, the more we set ourselves free.
A Message of Hope Just for You
If you’re on this path of self-acceptance, know this: you’re not alone. No matter your age or your story, blooming is always possible.
Thank You for Receiving This Message
Every brushstroke in this piece was a release. Every layer tells a story worth seeing and honoring. Thank you for letting me share it with you.
You are enough: now and always.
