shield.

SHIELD is an expression of the human need for protection.

As a survivor of stage three breast cancer, I have worked tirelessly on shielding myself from constant exposure to a multitude of triggers. Anxiety and fear have tried their best to get the better of me, and it has taken a massive support network to help me protect myself and heal. To gain physical strength and to find my inner spark again.

SHIELD was painted during a time of great healing and a regaining of internal hope.
