As I finished an image for My Face My Art a cruel voice in my head reminded me that I’m worthless. My gut felt heavy. I wanted to curl in the fetal position and face the wall with my back to everything; anything that might be damaged by my existence. If this feeling could be weighed, […]

Right now I have Grace’s face in front of mine like a self portrait. Her eyes are even with mine. She looks me in the face with confidence I didn’t get to see grow. I don’t even know how much time has passed because time means nothing to me. I think of Grace quite often. […]

This is some of the art I’m working on. It’s art on paper, of course. One – watercolor and acrylic. She is wild and Untamed. Two – watercolor and acrylic. I’ve lost my way on this one so it hangs waiting for the aha moment. “Black Butterfly” – I’d never seen a black butterfly until […]

5:08 pm EST I’m lost in this, trying to get out of my skin. This hurts so bad and I’m scared. I hate this!! Father! I’ve been hitting 9’s since Sunday. It’s not immediate, it’s a gradual rise as I move around, as the air hits me or I move my head and my hair […]
So you have a room divider meant for family photos but you’d rather do something artsy with it, try filling the spaces with original art. In my room divider I’ve added such original works as the encaustic mixed media painting called “Fall Tree“. Beautiful blues are displayed acrylic painting in “Abstract Waves“. I’ve also showcased […]
