Hi, it’s Rekeshia here! I’d like to share a bit about myself. Throughout my life, I’ve been fortunate to have many teachers, from my grandfathers and grandmothers to simply trying new things. I’ve spent time with my family. My paintings are inspired by my experiences, the stories I’ve lived, my feelings, or the people in my life. Each piece reflects who I am as an artist and as a person. I take pride in my creations because they carry significant meaning for me. Once I finish a piece, I like to view it in different lighting and from various distances, as well as see how it looks through a camera. If you could do one thing for me, I would greatly appreciate it: please take the artwork and place it on the wall or floor. Then, take a seat or step back a couple of paces. Take a few deep breaths, close your eyes for a moment, and then open them to look at the work. Allow yourself to get lost in the colours, patterns, and emotions that arise as you observe the artwork in front of you.
