"The piece is about vanity and how when we are too concerned with the exterior it can taint what matters most. In Snow White the evil queen is so obsessed with being the baddest b in town that it corrupts her. Home girl takes it so far as to create the poison apple to take out the competition 😔 I hope this painting is a reminder that even in the age of impossible beauty standards we foster our inner beauty 💌 I have personally struggled my whole life with self-image, and I know what it is to obsess over your looks, compare yourself, and want to be more whatever. I love that we artists can translate our own struggles and lessons into something tangible to share with the world."
