"Both Soft and Strong" 

30 x40 x 1.5"  Mixed Media Original on Canvas

“She is both soft and strong.
Her feminine power lives in the in between spaces.
She is gentle and unbreakable.
Standing tall in her vulnerability, being seen for who she is.” - MSBURT

A reflection on strength, softness, and the power of being seen.

This mixed media painting is part of the Women’s Series, honoring the layered and evolving nature of womanhood.

Created through intuitive mark making, textured materials, and handwritten language, the piece holds presence without force. Each layer remains visible, allowing the work to unfold slowly over time.

Strength and softness coexist. Vulnerability is not hidden or corrected, but held as a source of quiet power. The composition invites stillness and reflection, offering recognition rather than explanation.

Designed to live in refined spaces, this work brings depth, warmth, and meaning to its surroundings. A piece for collectors drawn to art that speaks softly and stays.

One of a kind original mixed media artwork on canvas with painted edges.
30 x 40 x 1.5 inches.
