I Paint Therefore I Am Print

This piece embodies Descartes' "I think therefore I am" through a creative lens: I paint therefore I am. It reflects where action becomes proof: where showing up to the canvas teaches your nervous system that you are an artist. The work explores boundaries and the power of choosing what you want with clarity, alignment and consistency.

Confidence and inner stability exude from the figure. Muted blues and browns create a calm, intentional tone, showing how alignment brings ease. around her, the loose, messy background echos unpredictability of the world without overwhelming her presence. The spacious composition offers room to breathe and choose, mirroring the clarity and self-assurance at the heart of this piece.

This work highlights what becomes possible when you stop abandoning your needs and begin making choices that reflect what you truly want. When your actions align with your desires your identity shifts and confidence becomes a by-product of this. This piece also honours the role of community in your environment. When your community reflects ambition, self respect and growth, success begins to feel attainable.
