I had a dream last night and one of my greatest cheerleaders at UCSF made an appearance - Dr. Nat Gleason. I remember being so happy to see him. He told me how much the team missed me and I told him how much I missed the team. Today, one of the VPs at Kyruus emailed me letting me know that he met Nat yesterday and that Nat “missed me tons and praised me to the high heavens”. These types of things happen to me often. Twice I have had dreams come true and many many other times I have dreamt about someone that either contacted me the next day or I ran into. I believe there is something connecting us all. If we open ourselves to it, we feel it. I feel it all the time. I can’t stop feeling it.

The opportunity to design these murals and facilitate painting them at both opening events meant the world to me. It was also a very vulnerable thing for me to do but vulnerability is what you need to connect and I hope that these murals helped to do just that.

Maternity Series - Artist Statement
Maternity Series - Artist Statement

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.

Domestic Abuse, Written by an Immigrant
Domestic Abuse, Written by an Immigrant

Why am I sharing this?  I have made it my life’s mission to fight for those who were less fortunate like me and my family, including my father who was also a victim.  The first step is increasing awareness.  We cannot hide in shame and statistics.  We have to be loud and talk about very personal stories.
