Not so long ago, I began to share my art journey. Today, I thought I’d continue to share my foray into the art world, as it returned me to a state of hopefulness that my illness had taken away. By the middle of 2019, I had begun to connect the dots in my life andContinue reading “My Art Journey… Continued”

My Amazing Day
Life is amazing. I know, because I have more life behind me than what’s up ahead. And I was just thinking, how when I was a kid the simplest things made me happy. Like, if I woke up and the sun was out and shining. That made me happy, that was it. That was allContinue reading “My Amazing Day”
Thoughtful. Artful. Humbled
My life has been quite a journey. I assure you, if anyone was silly enough to want to write a book about my life, there would be no need for fictionalization. It has been an amazing ride! Of course, some of the names would have to be changed to protect the writer, but the dramaContinue reading “Thoughtful. Artful. Humbled”
Art of a Moment
I haven’t made many abstracts. But this is one of my personal favorites, as it represents both what’s quickly lost, but also that which is remembered and longed for, thoughts that are renamed memories. I’m so honored & proud to have this painting selected to be displayed on a digital billboard in Boston’s busy DownTownContinue reading “Art of a Moment”
Steadying My Art
Woke. Crawled out of bed. Still breathing 🙏 After being a little silly yesterday, I’m feeling pensive today. I was just thinking… what were you doing? For me, my IG posts must be organic, being spontaneous is a big part of who I am & it’s indicative of what I do. Truth is, I tooContinue reading “Steadying My Art”

And I thought about what stepping out of that frame would look like. For me, being aContinue reading “Stepping Outside Art”
The Art of Conversation
Now? #amwriting✍️ A bunch of questions, answered in a ledger, filled with humorous stories of this life & #HowIGotHere titled: “How Many Folks, Exactly Does It Take To Hold A Good Woman Up?” Because I’m tired, part of my “Can We Talk” Series that will drop as soon as it gets picked up. Debating whetherContinue reading “The Art of Conversation”
My Art Journey… Pt 6 of
What if art, by its very nature- the use of our eyes as we view it, to make us feel what we see- also makes us feel empathy? And compassion? I look at the word heART 💜 and I see the word “art” in it. Of course I’ve typed it so it would be easyContinue reading “My Art Journey… Pt 6 of”
Greeting Card Art
In celebration & Onward! Remember when Hallmark’s Mahogany card collection first launched? Back then the brand was partnered with Dr. Maya Angelou and it was exquisite. Her words graced the inside of your cards & the art work on the outside was reflective of the depth and richness of her words and captured the blackContinue reading “Greeting Card Art”
Shipping My Art
Excitement. Anxiety. Excitement. Whew! Packing up my painting for the “Salve” Exhibition at New Art Corridor Gallery. I’m so honored. As an artist, I must never let this get old. Feeling overwhelming joy & nervous jitters means I’m alive! It’s humbling to be invited to a curated exhibition. Last month I spent hours packing aContinue reading “Shipping My Art”
