Simple Pleasures

For me, happiness has always been intertwined with love which has inspired me to create this piece that speaks of my passion for the little joys in life. Luxury or extravagance never piqued my happiness; rather, it was the simple pleasures that made me smile, like in this self-portrait, which encapsulates all the things that excite me. The white frock is an ode to my everlasting love for wearing dresses and feeling like the best version of myself. The flowers represent my adoration for nature yet the reason for choosing sunflowers is the colour yellow, which is my mother’s favourite. And lastly, the beach, my favourite place to be at. The feeling of warm sand beneath my toes and the sea which stretches infinitely, sparkling under the sun, is parallel to paradise. Hence, surrounded by the things I love and the people I cherish is when I feel incandescently happy.
