Samantha in Leather — Painting Myself in the Rose Courtyard

I’m standing in a rose-filled courtyard, brush in hand, turning a weathered wall into a larger-than-life portrait of my own face.

The flowers are soft, the stone is aged… and I’m the contrast: black leather, long gloves, and that unmistakable “don’t touch unless I say so” posture.

This self-portrait is about control and temptation in the same frame: my body posed like a statement, my gaze immortalized on the wall, and the garden acting as an innocent cover story. It’s elegant, provocative, and just wicked enough to feel like you’re looking at something you weren’t supposed to find.

If you like your art with beauty, power, and a hint of danger, this one belongs with you.
