ITTY BITTY reflects the universal pride and awkwardness that comes with wearing your first bikini. For many girls, it marks a small but memorable milestone, a moment of excitement, self-consciousness, confidence, and uncertainty all at once. The bikini becomes more than an article of clothing; it becomes a symbol of growing up.
By enlarging and simplifying the form, the painting transforms a familiar object into an icon of girlhood. Bright colors and playful shapes evoke the joy and anticipation of childhood summers, while the scale of the work emphasizes the significance we attach to seemingly ordinary experiences.
Like much of my work, ITTY BITTY celebrates the beauty of girlhood through subjects that are often overlooked or dismissed as trivial. The painting honors the shared memories, emotions, and rites of passage that connect girls across generations.
