Rebirth reflects the kind of transformation that only comes after something has been tested. The central figure is a phoenix, rising from what suggests flame and fracture. The surface is heavily layered and distressed, creating depth that feels worn rather than polished. Gold and earth tones move through the wings with weight and texture, giving the form strength rather than fragility. The phoenix is not escaping the fire. It is emerging from it. The piece speaks to the reality that growth is often uncomfortable and refining. What rises after pressure is not the same as what entered it. It is stronger, clearer, and more aware.
Medium: Acrylic and gesso on canvas. Dimensions: 24 × 30 in (60.96 × 76.2 cm)
