Frankie Merrill, Me and Little Me, Gouache on Watercolor Paper (2023), 11'' x 11'', $500
Frankie Merrill, Anatomical Portrait, Gouache on Watercolor Paper (2024), 10'' x 10'', $500
Artist Statement:
A set of self portraits that represent both the objective fact and subjective feeling of having to come to terms with belonging to a body that is constantly changing and a head that would like to resist it. The two pieces are intended to show vulnerability. I think about my childhood a lot and how I could not be me without little me. I think about the way I am now and how my outsides are only me if my insides are exposed.
