Rx: treat yourself
I hope 'Rx: treat yourself' reminds you that when life is rough (or anytime, actually) go ahead + treat yourself. you're amazing + you deserve a little happinessā¤
ABOUT THE COLLECTION:
'Rx: treat yourself' is a part of my flower medicine collection--paintings created while I was feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, sad and hopeless about a medical condition I was experiencing in December 2024.
One day, I picked up the paintbrush and out came flowers. As I painted them, my spirits began to lift and I started to actively attempt to infuse joy and hope into my painting.
Each one is different, but they share many transparent layers of paint (many mixed with my favorite color: fluorescent magenta), paint splatters and drips, collaged on polka dots + stripes. Some have crackle paste or modeling paste; all of them have my desire to reach out to you + have you believe it will get better as well.
This flower bouquet is your medicine š hang it on your wall or give it to a friend who needs it.
This painting was made on a 11x14" oval plaque. It was painted with acrylic + sprayed with a clear coat, and is wired on the back for hanging.
Ā please note I do my absolute best to make the photos match the real-life paintings, but it is a challenge with my vibrant color palette! Most of the time, paintings look much more vibrant in real life, but just be aware that there may be discrepancies between what you see on screen and the actual product.
