Selfish Love (2026) Original Oil Painting by Kristina Mallen

In this elegant and erotic painting, I explore the act of self-creation, an intimate ritual of a woman discovering and worshipping herself.

This is a sensual painting, where a beautiful naked woman indulges in her own touch, dissolving into the pleasure of self-exploration. Her bare breasts, the subtle hint of a female nipple, the curve of her nude body—all invite the viewer into a deeply personal moment. Her legs and feet in high heels, frozen in an almost sculptural elegance.

The contrast of black and white minimalism, intensified by red accents, creates a tension—between revelation and concealment. This is a woman who claims her own desire, who does not wait to be admired but instead admires herself.

Influenced by pop art, retro style, and timeless classic chic, this work transcends traditional nude art. It is a celebration of self-pleasure, self-knowledge, and self-love.
