I'm trying to find the strength within myself (2026) Original Watercolour by Anna Belousova

20 x 20 x 0.2cm (unframed) / 15 x 15cm (actual image size)

£256.9

This small-scale watercolor is based on my own body and on the act of posing for myself. The figure folds inward, forming a closed, almost self-contained structure.

The image does not aim to represent the body as a stable form, but to trace an intimate relation — a moment of withdrawal, compression, and internal tension. The body appears as both surface and interior, simultaneously exposed and concealed.

The image was created using beetroot and lemon juice applied like watercolor. This organic material introduces instability into the process itself: the pigment behaves unpredictably, staining and fading in ways that evoke flesh, bruising, fluid, and internal matter.

Rather than a fixed identity, this work records a shifting, intimate encounter with oneself — where the body becomes dense, vulnerable, and partially unrecognizable.

Materials used:

beatroot juce, lemon juce
