“boys will be boys, thank god for that”  is a layered digital collage blending classical oil painting with vintage comic textures, bold typography, and modern pop accents. A partially exposed figure—serene yet pierced—sits at the center, surrounded by playful yellow dots and a rich crimson circle that echoes both divinity and danger. Torn paper edges, halftone patterns, and Portuguese comic clippings add texture and nostalgia, grounding the piece in both personal memory and cultural critique.
This artwork is a commentary on masculinity, mythology, and the chaos of becoming. Both humorous and haunting, it's made to stop you mid-scroll—and linger in your space.
