🕰️✨ takes us back to a cherished moment in 2021, my inaugural year as a life model and my first-ever portrait session. 🎨🖌️ Today, I’m thrilled to share with you this exquisite oil painting created by the talented Patience at The Fold in Billericay. Spanning 7 sessions, each lasting an hour and a half, this piece is a labor of love and dedication. 💕

I was fortunate enough to be gifted this portrait, and looking at it now, it’s fascinating to see how much I’ve evolved since then. This journey of self-discovery through art, witnessing how different artists capture various chapters of my life, is truly the most rewarding part of what I do. 🌟👤

This painting not only represents a significant milestone in my career but also serves as a mirror to the past, reflecting a version of myself that feels both familiar and distant. 🕊️🔍

I hope this piece brings you as much joy and reflection as it does to me. Here’s to many more moments of being immortalized through the eyes of incredible artists! 🍾🎉
