Self-portrait oil on canvas 40x40

For this painting, I wanted to reflect on the changes I felt throughout quarentine. I decided to leave the eyes as if they are missing or closed because even though I know the world isn’t right, I feel as though I still know anything. Heaven seems further away and my innocence is deteriorating because of what I see in the news. I feel like before I’ve purposely chosen to ignore these things but because of the pandemic there’s not much else to see but what’s happening around the country and so I've decided to emphasize that in my art.
