Nothing to Hold, But Myself
An original 36x24 inch abstract figurative painting of a nude woman sitting was made during the quiet hours during nap, where my mothering can finally pause. In this moment, there is nothing left to hold but her own body, her own breath, and just herself.
This piece is part of the Matrescence series , paintings and drawings made while becoming a mother.
