trippy drippy

This bold and emotive painting centers on a flower that refuses to fade — bursting from a background of dripping crimson and teal like a symbol of survival. The petals, painted in earthy green and deep turquoise, are edged with black ink strokes that give them strength and structure. At the heart of the bloom, a textured red center speckled with darker tones pulses with life, evoking heat, passion, or perhaps even inner conflict. The background drips like rain and blood — suggesting pain, growth, and the sacred mess of transformation. This piece feels alive, almost defiant — a visual testament to rising through intensity and still blooming.
