Suck In Your Gut and Hit the High Note | 36 x 36in
From my "Nashville" collection. This painting, "Suck in Your Gut and Hit the High Note," features a lavender songwriter's notebook emblazoned with the work's irreverent title and surrounded by a colorful swirl lollipop, a bright yellow pen, glittering hearts, and playful hand-drawn stickers. A microphone, an unimpressed cat, and cheeky messages such as "I Hate Everyone," "Men Are Trash," and "You Got This" capture the humor, vulnerability, and determination behind every polished performance. Blending Nashville's songwriting culture with Ashley's signature wit, bold color, and unapologetic honesty, the composition celebrates the messy inner dialogue that accompanies creative ambition. Vibrant pattern, nostalgic objects, and fearless storytelling transform this witty still life into an empowering tribute to showing up, pushing through, and delivering the high note anyway.
