The Flourishing Reign of Femme
Acrylic on canvas board
📏 11” x 14” (unframed), 17.5” x 20.5” (framed)
🖼️ Original Available - No Prints! This is a one-of-a-kind piece!

Framed in a rich, antiqued gold scrollwork, The Flourishing Reign of Femme commands attention even before the eye meets the canvas. Within, flowers surge upward in wild defiance—twisting, blooming, and leaning into shadow and light. They sprawl freely, unconstrained by arrangement, unapologetically lush. Grapes, peeled onions, and curling petals swell and decay together, refusing to be ornamental or tame.

Beneath them, a dresser and glass of wine—symbols of domesticity, control, and civility—are dwarfed by the riotous feminine above. The painting rejects the idea that femininity must be quiet or polished. Here, it reigns as glorious chaos: messy, powerful, and alive.

A celebration of feminine power in its most organic form, this piece invites the viewer to reconsider: What happens when beauty is no longer bound by rules?

On view at the Artspace Gallery from May 23 – July 19, 2025
