Expansion

“Expansion”
Acrylic on canvas
30 x 24 x 1.5 in

One of the themes for much of my work has been growth, self-love, and self-acceptance. 

I can't understand anyone who doesn't want to continue growing during their time here on this planet. 

Here's the accompanying poem:

"You deserve to grow
past the confines
of your old self
to become
more open
more compassionate
more at peace
and more self-assured." 

This painting was featured in Laura Mitsu's debut solo exhibition "Poetic Abstraction" in April-May 2024 in San Francisco, CA.
