ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This artwork takes a vintage 1965 paint-by-numbers of Pinkie a windswept woman standing by the sea and gives it a modern, tongue-in-cheek twist with the words: "It's Hard To Be A Woman." with "Sometimes" struck through to playfully reinforce the message. The woman’s poised stance amidst turbulent surroundings mirrors the universal challenges of womanhood, but with a wink, reminding us that even in the face of adversity, there's room for a little humor.
