Marmalade Wednesday 9" by 12"

Marmalade Wednesday is a self portrait of some sort I suppose. Unknowingly I end up painting pieces of myself in everything I create. 
 
Marmalade depicts a piece of my life where I felt the world around me coming to life with wonders beyond my wildest dreams asking me to explore- and I wasn't ready to dive in. I was scared of leaving the security of normalcy. I liked being tender and innocent I wasn't embracing my darkness. Becoming stuck in the feminine of staying still drowning in emotion.
 
I love this piece. This girl. With all my heart. Thank you Marmalade.
