ABOUT THE PAINTING

I'm tired of the filters, retouching, and surgeries we see daily on screens that transform humans into something unrecognizable. It's disturbing how everyone wants to be a collage of other people's parts, who also copied parts of other people, trying to fit into a mold where everyone seems to be expected to conform.

There's a fine line between "everyone can do what they want" and then condoning clear psychological problems that are normalized and spreading through our society like a tsunami. Our body types and facial features aren't fast fashion items that can be discarded with each passing season.

It's okay to be a person who looks like a person.

ART SUPPLIES USED

I painted this piece with the lightfast premium watercolors Schmincke Horadam, Sennelier and QoR, on acid free, 100% cotton, hot-press 300gr watercolor paper by the brand Baohong. And, at the end, I sprayed this painting with a few layers of Krylon UV resistant coating for its optimal preservation.
