Original artwork description:

Multitudes is a celebration of the layered, complex, beautiful truth:
you are multifaceted and it all matters.

This piece pulses with color and contrast—midnight blues, leafy greens, vibrant pinks, and soft neutrals—each tone asserting its own presence, yet held together in harmony. It reflects the truth of a life that holds both joy and sorrow, clarity and chaos, strength and softness.

It’s a visual reminder that contradiction isn’t conflict—it’s depth. That to be fully alive is to allow yourself to be ever-changing, fully feeling, wholly human.

I painted Multitudes after several months of painting urban landscapes with right angles and straight lines. This was a burst of energy and non-conformity from that other body of work. And it just so happened to be spring.

Multitudes invites you to embrace every version of yourself—not just the polished ones, but the evolving, wild, radiant ones too.
