Here’s the completed first draft of my Chinatown mural. Let me know what you think! Posting an application sketch to my stories so you can imagine it on the wall itself. Looking for honest feedback / constructive criticism. This design was based off of four community engagement events that were held and the feedback from those gatherings. 🙏

James and I are raffling our beloved pot, our first collaboration, our first claybaby. It’s hard out here for everyone at the moment, and being a full time artist requires support that is hard to ask for.
Many of you know that I finally made the jump to renting my own studio space next door to Leeward’s new digs earlier this summer. I’ve never felt more connected to my inner world, to source, to my center, and I’ve also never been more financially stressed. I’m determined to make this work, to make work that reflects my experience and builds bridges between our illusioned separateness, so I’m doing what needs to be done and putting myself out there.
All that to say, if you want to contribute to our endeavors as creatives, bringing our unique light and gifts to the world in whatever small way, consider entering or sharing our raffle for this beautiful pot we created last year.
The raffle will run thru the 29th, and the winner will be selected and announced on the 30th of November.
Entries are $15 each, Venmo @ggumption
You can enter as many times as you wish 🙏🏼🫶🏼
Appreciate you all, much love.
“All in Together Now”
Reminders of a summer of abundance & true love.
22” x 30” mixed media on black Stonehenge

I promise, it’s worth watching the whole thing.
