Celestial Craving - AVAILABLE

Pleasure doesn’t have to be monumental to be radical. Sometimes it’s small, soft, and shining—something you keep close as a reminder that joy still belongs to you.

This piece is part of Infinite Sweetness, my ongoing series of paintings that treat indulgence as reverence. Donuts, frosting, sprinkles—things so often dismissed as unserious—become symbols of appetite, softness, and abundance.

In a culture that asks us to harden, to shrink, to deny what we want, sweetness becomes a quiet refusal. A declaration that delight is not frivolous. That beauty is not optional. That pleasure can be its own form of agency.

At 18 x 14 inches, this work is more intimate than the larger paintings in the series—like a small devotional object to joy.

Infinite Sweetness reminds me that even the simplest comforts can hold power.
