This painting is about dating apps. In it I talk about how the dating world has become transactional. Dating apps and social media have normalized relationships built on the expectation for reciprocation. Generally, both individuals are concerned with how they will benefit instead of looking for a relationship where both parties see each other as a person and understand the other's needs. 

 

This is also about how we have way too many options when it comes to dating. Too many people that we can instantly connect with. This mix of FOMO and complete dread is what I hope people will relate to when looking at this painting. It's a bit sarcastic. 

 

Dating apps and social media basically stamp a grade or a price tag on your forehead. One point if you have a photo in your bathing suit, three points if you have an above average social media following, two points for griffindor if you have a photo in yoga pants featuring your butt! We all care too much about how people percieve us, that affects what we expect from the people closest to us.
