Heartbreak

• Artist Statement

  This piece encapsulates the sorrowful feelings of heartbreak, whether through the tears rolling down the cheeks or the longing gaze. There is very minimal color on this piece so as to convey the misery and sorrow of heartbreak, but the tears and lips still have color to symbolize the emotion and what was lost.

• Creative Statement

  To me, creativity is about embracing your individuality and unique ideas, experiences, thoughts, opinions, and feelings. When it comes to creativity in art, it isn’t just about crafting something super artistic and beautiful, it’s also about thinking outside the box, exploration, and ultimately creating something out of the ordinary.
