Drawing from my academic studies into emotional intelligence, emotional vocabulary, and emotional literacy, I'm connecting emotions with colors, flowers, and sentiment. The aim is to raise emotional awareness and express complex feelings visually. This creative journey, influenced by decades of personal growth and artistic practice, looks at how art and emotion overlap, fostering empathy and understanding. As I navigate this journey, I explore both collective and personal emotional expressions, contributing to a broader conversation on emotional intelligence and artistic expression. This pursuit goes beyond art creation; it's a journey into emotional intelligence that nurtures deeper connections and communication.\
