‘Pain – A Self Portrait’ digital painting by Nicki MacRae, 2022.

A square digital portrait painting with glowing colours, multiple layers of texture and ethereal atmosphere. A white 40s woman is seen head and shoulder, her tied back hair slightly pooling around her as if lying down flat. Her eyes are shut, her glasses seem to glow, her skin - mottled, yet beautiful - is full of overlain semi-transparent texture and colour, interacting to effectively appear as grey. She wears a pointed collar shirt and textured orange cardigan. A brooch has a stitched picture of a human brain, relating to her painful neurological condition. White speckles float around her. She looks pained.
