This painting revolves around feelings of paranoia and uncertainty that follow me as I grow up. My face gaunt, I walk along a lonely road before the impending sunset. The empty road is indicative of a safe, familiar upbringing. Simultaneously, I attempt to ignore the lurking entities behind me — always there, not exactly a threat to me — fear manifested. The crows in the background reflect death: the death of childhood, and fear associated with nothingness. My decaying flower is symbolic of a fading childhood innocence, as I must finally confront the monsters who have escaped from under my bed.
