Part of my Heritage Dreams: Awakening series, “Awakening in Color” is about that moment when the world feels like it’s just opening its eyes.

The figure tilts her face toward the light, wrapped in black‑and‑white shadows, surrounded by tropical color and a single red hibiscus, a little nod to vitality, to heritage, to the things that make us come alive.

I wanted this piece to feel like that breath right before a new day begins — when everything feels dreamlike and full of possibility.
