We lose ourselves in small ways, every day. To expectations, to demands -  and not just those made by others, but often those made by ourselves. "I Choose Me" is the moment of recognition - and the decision to stop. The canvas holds what happens when you finally turn toward yourself.

“I choose Me” is a love letter. Written in pigment and skin, addressed to the one person who is always present and too often forgotten.


Often the love we were meant to keep for ourselves gets distributed everywhere else.

"I Choose Me” was painted in the moment of recognizing that pattern. The body on the canvas is not fighting anyone. It is not rebelling. It is simply returning - to softness, to care, to the quiet act of choosing oneself not out of selfishness, but out of deep, earned respect. Where “Lost & Found” was about willingly dissolving into the unknown, this painting is the homecoming.

What remains on the canvas is not a manifesto. It is a memory. The memory of a body that chose itself - not out of selfishness, not out of exhaustion, but out of something older and quieter than either.

Out of love.
