'Amour de soi- love of self'
8x10, watercolor on canvas, available

I am working on a series of paintings that aim to spread the idea of amour de soi – to love and value your self based on no one’s opinions.

'Amour de soi is compatible with personal wholeness and pure happiness. It is a much more primitive sense of the concept of self-love. Since it does not depend on competition, pertains much more to the self and one’s own opinion, amour de soi would be less likely to lead to suffering.

A person may follow others opinions to fit in or keep up and never find the real sense of love of self, which results in a confusing, insignificant, and regretful life. However, it is proven that with confidence, persistence, and amour de soi, a person can rise to success. It is important to stay true and know how to love yourself instead of basing your whole life and identity on the opinions of society.'🌹
