Bloom in Time

I entered the 13-19 Art Price and created a piece entitled Bloom in Time. In this piece, I wanted to show today’s hectic society, and how we are obsessed with showing our successes that we sometimes do not give enough credit for the arduous journey we go through. I think the end result is important, but the process is crucial. That is why I painted a girl underwater to show that it is okay to not conquer something instantly. I wanted to show that we must survive and enjoy the process of our journey towards success. The blooming lotus flowers are there to depict our progress throughout the journey and it reminds us to be resilient just like these unique flowers rising from mud.
