12" x 12" Year Created: 2026 Art Print Reproduction Mat and Frame are not included. "Look Up To" is part of the "Women to Women" mini series. The affirmation on the print is "Be the woman you would look up to." Each painting in this series is a celebration of women supporting women. There’s something powerful that happens when women choose to build each other up.
"Woman to Woman" is a reflection of that shift away from comparison, judgment, and quiet competition and toward support, encouragement, and shared strength.
Each piece in this series carries a message, a reminder that we are not meant to do this alone.
These are the words we need to hear. The words we offer each other.The quiet reminders that we are supported and that we are the support.
Because there is strength in knowing: You don’t have to prove yourself here.
If you’ve ever felt like you had to figure everything out on your own…If you’ve ever questioned yourself, held back, or felt like you didn’t quite belong…
This work is a reminder that things can be different.
That we can be the women who lift each other up. Who fix each other’s crowns without needing recognition for it.
Each painting begins with a layer of newspaper representing the noise, the opinions, the conversations that happen around us.
Some of it stays. You can still see pieces of it beneath the surface.
But it no longer leads.
It’s pushed to the background where it belongs, making space for something stronger, brighter, and more intentional.
The portraits themselves are bold and expressive, with exaggerated color and presence. The backgrounds are softer—feminine, calm, and grounding.
Strength and softness, existing together.
Gold leaf is woven throughout the work as a reminder that we are worthy of being seen, valued, and treated like the queens we are.
I imagine these pieces living in the spaces where your day begins.
Where you get ready in the morning. Where you sit down to do your work.
A place where you can look up and remember who you are and the kind of woman you choose to be.
