This Is Not Art

Zoe Toscano
Modesto, CA United States
Painting: Watercolor

This portrait was centered around a traumatic event that happened in 2020. This painting has a personal story. I find myself expressing my emotions about the event more clearly through painting than speaking about it. That being said I want this piece to be more open for interpretation to the audience. I wanted to use this piece to be able to connect the viewer with their own moments of trauma.
