On Finding The Positives
This has been one of the most challenging years for most of the people I know. I don't have to explain all the reasons that 2020 blows chunks.

The past few days have truly been a few of the hardest. I've been channeling my energy and focus into making art. As long as I stay focused on something, that doesn't allow for much internal spinning, I don't break down in tears. Every day is a little easier than the last. Until I'm punched … Continue reading On Creating Art
