Acrylic Painting - Ball of Love

"DO NOT TOUCH" does NOT apply to this!!!

This 4"x6" acrylic painting is designed with a textured surface and is intended to be traced with your finger to provide a sense of grounding during anxious moments. I selected reptiles as my subject matter because, to me, they symbolize the unfounded fear that certain individuals harbor towards the Queer community. I believe that reptiles are magnificent beings and, like myself, are worthy of love, admiration, and respect.

"Ball of Love" is inspired by a sweet, cuddly girl named Levie, aka Little Leviathan lol. I've always loved cuddling up with her all balled up and tracing her spine and sides. It's very calming. Contrary to this painting, her scales are so soft that they almost feel like silk.
