Waves of Emotions

Acrylic on canvas, 2017, 12"w x 12"h

Uncontrolled waves overtake me—one week at a time, once a month. Similar to big ocean waves, I cannot be tamed. As loud and scary as I may be, I am one with nature, powerful and unique. Although these red waves may be unpredictable, they bring a sense of tranquility. Waves of Emotions depicts the similarities between ocean waves and the emotional experience I have when it is my time of the month. This piece was created to help relieve anxious and upset feelings in order to bring inner peace and calmness, which is reflective of how I feel when I am at the beach watching the waves.
