I cry, I cry, I cry!

watercolour on paper
I cry, I cry, I cry! is a self-portrait depicting an intimate moment with myself, a moment of intense emotional release. As I navigate the transitional period in life from girlhood to womanhood, I have found myself slipping into periods of isolated reflection while simultaneously mourning and yearning the changes of growing up. I have found solitude within these moments but also question its loneliness. Ultimately, I know that being perceived by others would hinder my ability to truly express my personal discomfort.
