"Keep Your Chin Up"

This original 5” x 10” acrylic painting on canvas blends contemporary figurative art, pop surrealism, and symbolic portraiture into a striking small-format statement piece.

The portrait features a powerful female figure wearing an anatomical heart necklace, symbolizing emotional courage, inner truth, and resilience. Set against a turquoise background with softly swimming fish, the artwork evokes depth, intuition, and the feeling of navigating life’s emotional waters while keeping your head held high.

Bold oranges, teals, and golden tones create vibrant contrast, while expressive linework and stylized features give the piece a modern, collectible feel. The vertical composition makes it perfect for narrow wall spaces, gallery walls, or intimate corners that need a pop of color and meaning.

This painting speaks to themes of:
• Emotional strength
• Feminine power
• Vulnerability as courage
• Heart-centered living
• Personal resilience

A soulful, symbolic artwork for collectors of modern figurative art, feminist art, heart symbolism art, and colorful contemporary wall decor.
