My master study of Fernando Amorsolo's On the Way Home 🖌️🎨🖼️

My painting "Traces in the Sand: A Path to Liberation” is my most personal work to date. While conceptualizing this piece, I reflected on significant moments in my life. It begins with the carefree joy of childhood, transitions through my college years as I pursued an accounting degree, and continues into my professional life. Through this painting, I aim to express the complexity of my journey—my struggles, realizations, and hopes for liberation. I invite viewers to engage with the stories and emotions embedded in my work, reflecting on their own paths toward self-discovery.
