"A Personal Story Finally Being Told..." is an abstract painting that captures the devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our lives. The woman in the painting wears a mask and cries, symbolizing the fear and uncertainty that we all have experienced during this time. My decision to reuse flower blossoms from the "LUSH" Company’s Flower department on the left side of the painting adds an environmental and sustainable touch to the artwork. It also serves as a symbol of beauty and resilience, as the flowers continue to bloom even in the midst of difficult circumstances. The contrast between the beautiful flower blossoms on the left and the dark spike construct on the right represents the duality of faith and fear, love and anger, hope and despair that we have encountered in the past years. This painting serves as a reminder of the importance of hope, love, and human connection during difficult times. It encourages us to tell our personal stories, to share our pain and our joy, and to support one another through the trials of life. "A Personal Story Finally Being Told..." is not just a painting, but a representation of the human experience during a global crisis, a story that needs to be told and shared with the world.
