To date, this canvas that I created to honor and release my grief from losing my sweet mama is my favorite canvas and the canvas I am most proud of. I believe she would be proud of it too. She hangs in my living room greeting each person who enters my home. She's filled with so much love just like my mama. My mom was my greatest cheerleader in life, and to be honest, I don't know that I'd be an artist if she hadn't encouraged me to be. She was such a lovely human, guiding me in this world and now from the spirit world. Her visits are timely, and when I need them the most, she gently encourages me, letting me know she's here, cheering from beyond, but most importantly, loving me from beyond the veil. Still. Last year I had a beautiful reading from @enchantedlynn where my mom came into our session to remind me that the universe loves me as she did and still does... Unconditionally. With tears streaming down my face and a warm hug from beyond I was once again grounded in her love and the divine love of all that surrounds us. It's in moments of self-doubt and when I'm feeling imposter syndrome I remember these words and they carry me through the fear, doubt, and everything else in between that our thoughts cloud and shield us from seeing and hold us back from moving forward. @officialpeoplesartist competition has been one of those moments of fear but instead of allowing fear to win, I leaped. It's been hard to create content each day to muster votes mainly because I want and need my content to be authentic to who I am and not just a "vote for me" post. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME AND HELP in voting for me. It has been so lovely for my heart to see how many people support me through this act of kindness. Art has healed and saved me so many times. It's my passion and purpose in life to offer therapeutic art to others in their darkest and most uncomfortable times as a human in this world. Art, visually or through music sometimes both simultaneously, speaks where words fail and offers answers to our most profound questions. That's been my experience this far and I hope the same for anyone who chooses to use art as a vehicle for healing. Check the comments👇

Come treat yourself, get your last minute mother's Day gifts, and have fun creating something handmade @dabbleartbar I'll have my painted wire bound journals, giclee prints of original art, greeting cards, linocut prints (painted and plain), empowerment magnets, bird sculptures (hanging and for your indoor plants), small 4×4 canvases, gratitude jars, and more.... I'm excited to be a part of this lovely market! Sunday, 5/10, 11-3 pm Check out these wonderful vendors that will be there @threefoldartcollective @littlefootmatcha @eatprettywithbee @enchantedlynn @thecosmiccircle @jaisav_ @littlefoxknots @graykatillustration See you tomorrow! ❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜

Nature's bountiful beauty inspires me in ways that words fail to express. I have a hard time describing the magnitude it has on my heart, the connection I feel to myself, to humankind, to the world, and to the spirit world. Every morning rain or shine and sometimes snow, I spend each morning listening, noticing, and communing with my natural world. It's here I feel at HOME. My best creative ideas come from my morning time with nature. She wraps me in a warm blanket of love, never judges my failings as a human, and provides the deepest comfort that everything will be okay. She gives me the strength to carry on another day despite my failings and shortcomings, the chaos of the world, and the hurt I feel in my heart witnessing the hardship those I love are going through or how the world reacts from a place of hatred instead of love. I have a deep respect for nature and the ways she shows us how to love and live. I appreciate the reflection she offers to be kind, compassionate, and to live with heart despite the cruelty that surrounds her. My painting, "HOME" exemplifies my feelings, the comfort nature gives me, and my deep appreciation for everything it gives my heart. 🙏🏼Thank you for continuing to vote for me as the next @officialpeoplesartist . I know it's a lot to ask for you to vote each day and I appreciate how each of you has shown up for me and continued to vote. This round of voting ends on 5/14.

Today's the day!!! Art in the Yard... Great selection of art to choose from. The booth next to me is incredible and the ladies are super sweet. I've enjoyed having them as neighbors this morning. Check out their work: great pottery and watercolor paintings. @muddywatersart1 @anneambrose It's been a wonderful day of heart centered conversation, connection, and amazing art. Come out, we're here until 4! 💖

Hey!!! Art in the yard has moved to the rain date SUNDAY, May 3rd! 11-4 pm Support local art and our small businesses! See you Sunday!

Y'all, LOOK at sweet, Chicken! A complete state of zen looking at my art! I met this beautiful dogger yesterday while meeting a lovely friend and hanging out @coffeeparkairstream I have two art markets coming up and can't wait to connect over art, share my heart with you, and see your beautiful faces. This is a vulnerable share, but I don't think I'm the only artist who thinks and feels this way or is going through what I'm about to say... Many artists are struggling financially during these challenging economic times. For those of us who rely on art sales to pay our bills and create to uplift the community, stay connected to our hearts, and create beautiful things to put into the world on the days that are dark and the light days, and if we didn't we would feel like death or at least our souls would, man, these days are hard. So please support the community of artists, support local small businesses over big business and large corporations. We rely on it to keep our lights on, feed our families, and everything else in between. Here are the art market details; I can't wait to see YOU. May 2, 11-4 pm, ART IN THE YARD 2085 Pleasant Ridge Rd, Greensboro May 10, 11-3 pm, Mother's Day Market, a beautiful market collaboration by @threefoldartcollective and @dabbleartbar Located at Dabble Art Bar 840 Mill Works St, Suite #180 Winston-Salem Even if you can't buy anything (I understand this too!) come stand in my booth, let the color wash over you and provide its own therapy. Come say hi, stand in front of the art, and be like Chicken.... A complete state of zen!

Art has saved me and reminded me of my gifts too many times to count. Here's what Art has done for me my entire life... ✨ Allowed me to release the emotional weight of the world and my own emotional heaviness. ✨ Given me immense joy in times of sorrow. ✨ Carried me through times of chaos and stress, assisted with mental and emotional processing, and provided an outlet for release. ✨ Provided comfort in times of severe rumination, the fog of self-doubt, and the weight of grief. She has been a constant companion for many years and has been by my side through the most difficult times in my life. Art is my number one way that I provide love to my heart and the tool I utilize most for self-care. For years I've assisted others to make self-love boxes and offered this self-care tool on my table at art shows & markets. They provide a tangible tool to give back to your heart, fill your inner cup with love, empowering words of love, and actions of self-care. I have been bogged down with seasonal allergies and fairly sick from them. Yesterday's first playshop, A Portrait of Self-Care, in our therapeutic art series filled my cup in the most profound ways in spite of not feeling well. I've included a few photos of yesterday's playshop. I'm so grateful to each person who engaged, didn't allow self-doubt to get in the way, and sat with the magic of intentional and mindful creation. It was so lovely to witness a softening and beautiful unfolding for each person who participated. 💖🙏🏼💖 Please join us next Monday, 4/20/26 for the next playshop in our series. The Self-Love Box Playshop provides an everyday tool that brings you back to your heart to care and love yourself on a deeper level. The link to register is in my Instagram profile.
