Underneath It All

Perhaps we hide the most beautiful parts of ourselves. Perhaps the layers, the imperfections, the so-called flaws are what make us remarkable.

There is magic in seeing someone whole, their past, their mess, their becoming; and loving them all the more.

Maybe it’s about getting older, about shedding masks, about standing raw and authentic and giving others the space to do the same.

Every stroke of this painting holds that truth, a layer hidden, a glimpse revealed, an untamed yet beautiful mess.

Underneath it all — there we are.
