Study painting' of Camille Munn (coloured version)

Hey peeps! How is everyone? Its been a while, so Initially I took a break off social media to simply reset due to personal reasons but shortly after art block creeped in so I took the time out to fully focus on honing my skills studying, learning without the pressure of social media.

Best decision ever! So I am now feeling reenergised and ready to show what i've been working on and get back into the full swing of things 💪🏾 🎨

‘Peace be still’ Painting 🌹🌱 'The journey to what we want might seem like an arduous one but trust the process... To trust the process is to forget wanting to know what is unfolding or why, but to be in the present moment and experience it.. this is what this painting of me feels like when I look at it and it’s timely to my life currently. Be inspired.’ - @roxstone

The client wanted to wear a Nefertiti style crown. Crazy timing as I just saw the recent "reconstruction" of Nefertiti smh. Representation matters ✨
