About The Artwork

This painting is based on a photo I took at summer camp, and represents one of my most painful memories from that time period. The girls in my cabin formed a clique. One day while napping, the girls came in and were discussing whether I was worthy of their company. I caught them later on film intimidating a fellow cabin mate, represented here. The painting won the media award at the St. Paul Art Crawl in 2017 and was included in an annual group exhibition at the Woman Made Gallery in Chicago. This painting is early in the "Like a Girl" series of paintings, Lizzie Wortham’s second collection to focus on abstracted representations of girls and young women on the path to discovering their own identities. Painted in oil using a combination of washes, solid blocks of color, layered brushwork, and thick impasto applied with a palette knife, the images play with the rules of pictorial space while evoking nostalgia, dreams, and memories of childhood and adolescence.
