Me
The thing I’ve learned is, its always best to allow yourself to be vulnerable even when others don’t.
I’ve done a lot of self reflection since I took these photos of myself back in 2014. Never have I ever before looked at these images and thought to myself this girl is brave, this girl is beautiful, this girl is worthy. Let me tell you, she is and always has been. When I took this images of myself I was only concerned with being cool, getting my assignments done and appearing to be an artist. At the time I had no idea how much I’d evolve as person, as an artist, as woman. Like most woman I know, I’ve struggled most of my life with body image issues, self acceptance and knowing my worth. Although I still have days I look in the mirror and I don’t see the best version of me… I have started seeing someone who is on her way to being the best version of her self. She is me and I love her. I have made peace and accepted this flawed person that I am. It has never felt so good to be this free.
