Oh snap ~ my art is in a museum! I wished I’d gotten better photos, but I was caught up in some dissociative impostor syndrome bs. If all works out, I’ll have pieces on showcase down in Ft. Worth, Texas and over in Madrid, Spain fall and winter 2021.

In collab with @folxhealth — Today is a day of celebrating! We celebrate everything that is beautiful and glorious about ourselves. All the ways we show up in the world and the divinity that resides inside of us.
Today we celebrate women, girls, fems and all folks who vibe with the moon!
✨FOR THE QUEERS, QUEENS & IN-BETWEENS✨
International Women's Day
by @_spacebones 💛
When I was creating this piece, I wanted to be as inclusive as I could. But there is no way I could hope to capture the multitudes that reside within our diverse trans & queer communities globally. Instead I wanted to share a work that y’all could contribute to as a part of defining and redefining International Women’s Day, so I created a coloring page for you.
Draw your friends, your lovers, yourself, your mentors, your ancestors, your legacy — it all deserves to be captured artistically and who better to create that snapshot than folks living and walking with their unique brand of beauty and power: you.

My therapist recently asked “what does your grief look like?” — I didn’t have any clue, but I spent time reflecting on my myriad of emotions & thought this was as accurate as I could get with where I am right now in the grieving process.

Posted @withregram • @folxhealth SACRED SHOT DAY RITUAL
by @_spacebones 💛
I started HRT on February 10, 2017. Aside from the doctor at the family planning clinic, I didn’t have much support and felt very intimidated by the slew of medical supplies I was issued from the pharmacy. Needless to say, I was unprepared for the physical and mental task of injecting myself each week. But I found that, over time, I was able to create a sacred ritual for shot days that helped alleviate a lot of my anxiety and fear.
For me, taking the ‘medical’ aspect out of shot day and grounding myself in a holistic practice to support my ongoing journey as a trans person. Making this mental shift allowed me to feel empowered to embrace my transness more than any vial of hormones ever could. Doctor’s offices and being asked personal questions about my body by strangers can be disorienting, but I realized I didn’t have to carry that gravity home with me. I release fear and trepidation, and I welcome gender euphoria, self-acceptance, and the intrinsic beauty of my unique journey.

Posted @withregram • @folxhealth "In my collaboration with FOLX, I have an opportunity to share ways that I have embraced being a nonbinary trans masc queer fem and how my Blackness informs and affirms the care I give myself on my journey. It's my hope that you are able to release ideas that self care is selfish, inaccessible for only for certain people. Whether you’re masculine, feminine, androgynous, or anywhere else on the spectrum of expression, caring for yourself is a need we all have. I hope you’ll join me in breaking down stigma attached to self care routines for masculine folks and help in queering self care for QTBIPOC in a cisnormative health & beauty industry.
Being trans is a divine gift. I feel extraordinarily blessed to be able to break free of the binary, explore the depths of my mind, and reconstruct a vessel that feels like home. But it has been a long road to this point. A part of how I arrived where I am is through mindful care of my body, mental health, and an unapologetic indulgence in joy."
💛 KOSMO (@_spacebones ) on self care & on their collaboration with FOLX.
Self care, but make it gender affirming. Prioritizing taking care of yourself is essential to your health. Find the little things in your life that bring you joy and do more of that.

Spent time doing a warm-up exercise that I hadn’t before! Turns out it was fun as hell! I’m leaning into my cartoony style, and this #characterdesign exercise was perfect for combatting “same face disease” lol

Been thinking a lot about all my attempts to start locs. I’ve failed 3-4 times, but this round it’s forming buds! I started my latest journey in early November 2020 so I still have quite a way to go.
The whole free form process reminds me of cultivating and caring for my plants. I can’t control how my hair will loc nor can I predict all the ways my plants will grow 🪴 all I can do is give nature the space to do what it does best, influence what I can, and enjoy the journey.

Hmmmm, experimenting with adding more texture to my works, which I feel can be a bit flat, & I’m liking it so far.
