I completely changed the story of this old painting. The old piece was standard, predictable, and not me anymore.

As we grow and change, our styles change. And the greatest thing is that I can remake any old painting that doesn’t represent me and my style any longer.

I also share in the video, how we can change our personal stories. Small decisions of change can re-energize us. Give us courage and freedom to imagine something new for ourselves.

Just like this painting, the first change inspired the whole direction of the redesign.

I’ll share more about the process in the video. Have fun watching and always know that you are loved!
