"Death Fucks Us All" was created in 2024 on a 40" x 30" stretched canvas using acrylic paint. This piece was a deliberate step outside my comfort zone. When I saw the call for The Dirty Show's 2025 exhibition, I was inspired to attempt a nude within my signature style. The painting was particularly influenced by the line, "𝕸𝖔𝖗𝖘 𝖎𝖗𝖗𝖚𝖒𝖆𝖙 𝖔𝖒𝖓𝖎𝖆. 𝔇𝔢𝔞𝔱𝔥 𝔉𝔲𝔠𝔨𝔰 𝔘𝔰 𝔄𝔩𝔩," from Leigh Bardugo's The Ninth House, one of my favorite books. This piece definitely pushed my artistic boundaries. While it ultimately wasn't selected for the show, the experience of creating it was incredibly valuable.
