"Milena" (meaning "New Moon") is a striking piece from the Black Lipstick Army series, portraying a Diné (Navajo) woman with long black hair, touched with white at the crown, symbolizing wisdom and transformation. Her tattoos reflect her rich cultural heritage and personal journey. Wearing black lipstick as a mark of strength and resilience, Milena embodies the beauty of tradition and the evolving spirit of self-empowerment. Painted in acrylic on a 20"x24" gallery-wrapped canvas, this piece captures both strength and grace.

For those looking to bring this empowering artwork into their own space, 11" x 17" prints are available for purchase at $25, and greeting cards featuring "Milena" are available for $5 each.
