For this series, the artist organized an open call for her collectors, fans, and fellow artists to be featured as one of her models. Each participant answered the same question: What does it mean to feel seen? Each painting and response is featured in the artist’s sixth book aptly titled \"SEEN Volume 5\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT DOES IT MEAN TO FEEL SEEN?\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eFeeling seen in 2026 hits a little different than it did when I was growing up. It’s not about a bunch of likes or someone dropping heart emojis on your post. It’s when somebody actually gets you, like they hear what you’re saying without you having to repeat yourself or dumb it down. It’s that moment when you’re just being your weird, tired, imperfect self and someone says “yeah, I get you, and I love you, for being you.” It’s rare now, with everyone scrolling past each other trying to look like they’ve got it all handled. Feeling seen is like a pause button on all the noise in the world. It’s knowing you matter to at least one real person, not for what you can do, not for what you’re putting out there, but just for being who you already are. That’s the good stuff, that’s what seen means to me these days.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e—\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e Rian “Raintree” Simpson \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHANGING \u0026amp; CARE\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtwork is ready to hang on the wall; hanging wire is secured on the back (nail and hook needed).
