About the Item

Prove Yourself Wrong was something I started saying to myself around 2017 and 2018. It was an anchor thought I would say if I doubted my ability to do something or if fear was stopping me from going after a goal or an intention. It was something that I kept to myself and now in 2022 I'm not sure the anchor thought is as relevant to me as it once was. That's not to say I have forgotten the importance it once had, hence why I have created an abstract-expressive piece of artwork, using the phrase 'Prove Yourself Wrong' as the central theme.
