“My Symbolic Growth and Formation of Identity Throughout Life’s Journey”
This project stands apart from my previous work, as it reflects not only a narrative journey but also a visual representation of who I am. Through careful experimentation with textures, colors, and styles, I’ve sought to create a piece that truly embodies my story and creative vision.
I hope this behind-the-scenes glimpse offers insight into my creative process and resonates with you as much as it has inspired me during its creation.
