Original artwork description:

A smile is the best therapy, and we should always embrace those who bring laughter and light into our lives, especially in moments of hardship. True joy lies in doing what nourishes our souls. This artwork continues my exploration of bold, vibrant contrasts, where the subject’s skin is rendered in deep blue tones against a soft green background. Golden-brown clothing and a white hat adorned with orange patterns add warmth and texture, amplifying my expressive use of color. The subject’s sideways glance suggests intrigue, self-awareness, or quiet defiance, inviting viewers to imagine the story behind the portrait. Through this work, I challenge traditional representations of identity and emotion, using color not only as an aesthetic choice but as a symbolic language. The painting reflects individuality, cultural expression, and the layered nature of human emotion, reminding us of the resilience and beauty found in joy.

Materials used:

I employed acrylics and oil paints on canvas to create the work m
