I believe that a relationship must have balance. There should be give and take - trade is implicit. Sometimes, the equilibrium is lost and that’s okay, as long as both people are committed to finding balance once again. I have seen people spend too much energy on another with the hope that eventually that person will find their way back as a close friend...hoping they will get some energy back. I’ve learned that if someone withdraws to point where I cannot reach them any longer, the best way to love them and myself is to let them go in hopes that we find each other once again in the future or another life.

Color is a focus of my work for a variety of reasons, but the main reason is for healing. My father was an angry and violent man. He took out his rage on his family daily and I took it upon myself to protect my mother and brother from him by becoming the focus of his fury. We didn’t have much, but my mother filled our home with colorful art to bring radiance into an otherwise dark place. I followed in her footsteps and escaped into vibrant art of all shapes and forms. Getting into the flow of mindful art creation has been the single most important part of my healing. I hope to share the happiness that colorful art brings me with others, especially children.
