Suffocation

canvas, acrylic paint

The painting is a visual representation of my mind, clouded in a wave of dissociation. The process of it wasn’t very hard, more so just long and tedious trying to blend paints together that were similar shades because I had a hard time telling if colors were blended or not. I chose to do visual arts for my genre because I’ve been doing art all my life, so the painting also means a lot to me. I had a hard time putting this onto a canvas because there isn’t any proper way to visualize these things, but overall I’m very happy with how it came out and that I can give others a peek inside my mind. The moon is meant to represent me, while the sea of clouds is my mind, my being and my existence.

To me creativity is a power of expression, when I create a piece of art I’m expressing how I feel during those moments and what it means for me that way others can see who I am.
