About the Item

“Bitch - A Love Letter to Rage”, is a fierce, original mixed-media painting that transforms a historically derogatory word into a declaration of strength, survival, and reclamation. Part of Michelle Thomas’s autobiographical "Bloodlines" series, this bold work channels the artist’s complex relationship with her mother — confronting abuse and turning pain into power. This painting pays homage to every woman with a “complex” relationship with their mother - sending them courage, confidence, love and peace. Rendered in a passionate palette of deep reds, mahogany, and maroon, this commanding large-scale artwork (48″ W × 60″ H × 1.5″ D) balances optics and emotion through complex textures, layered materials, and symbolic design. Sold directly from artist. What Kind of Piece Is This? A statement-making abstract that merges acrylic paint, glass, and natural stone on canvas to create a tactile, multi-dimensional experience. The right side features a dramatic cascade of stones forming an abstract, figurative silhouette — a symbolic presence representing defiance, groundedness, and transformation. This is a painting that does not whisper — it commands the room. What Makes It Special? Autobiographical Narrative: Part of Thomas’ Bloodlines series, a body of work exploring family, memory, trauma, and resilience. Empowering Reclamation: Reframes a once-harmful term into a symbol of feminine power, agency, and unapologetic strength. Tactile Layered: Bold interplay of layered paint, reflective glass, and natural stone creates compelling depth, shadow, and a sculptural effect. Passionate Palette: Deep reds and mahogany hues radiate vitality and emotional heat, reinforcing the work’s intensity. Conversation Catalyst: Ideal for collectors seeking pieces with conceptual weight and emotional resonance. Important Details for Collectors: Medium: Acrylic, glass, natural stone, and acrylic medium on gallery-wrapped canvas (edges painted for continuity) Dimensions: 48″ W × 60″ H × 1.5″ D Finish: Gallery wrap with painted sides; includes complimentary floater frame (black, white, silver, or gold selected in consultation with purchaser) Condition: New, signed artwork; ready to hang with included hardware Series: "Bloodlines" — exploring themes of family history, identity, and reclamation Ideal For: Collectors of concept-driven contemporary abstract art Interiors (modern, industrial, eclectic) seeking a dramatic, conversation-starting focal point Viewers drawn to works exploring empowerment, trauma recovery, and cultural narratives Spaces where visual texture, color, and emotional weight can anchor the design About the Artist: Michelle Thomas, BFA, is an award-winning contemporary abstract artist with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA). Her expressive practice fuses abstract expressionism, mixed media, and fearless use of color to convey emotional and social narratives. Her ongoing "Bloodlines" series explores personal and collective memory — transforming painful histories into works that pulse with resilience, connection, and meaning. Through layered materials and rhythmic, intuitive brushwork, Thomas challenges viewers to feel deeply and engage with the story behind the art.
