Self Portrait

11 in x 15 in | Watercolor on paper | 2023

For my self portrait, I used watercolor, a material that is hard to control and suppress to just one area, to represent myself in all aspects. Surrounding myself with objects that represent myself, I painted lotus flowers, the meaning of my Korean name, cherry blossoms that were prevalent in the neighborhood I grew up in, and peaches, my favorite fruit.
