Posting the art I make is difficult. I’m not a boastful person. I don’t relate to people that are. I don’t care about accolades or fame. I feel REALLY weird doing it but there is that part of me that feels it’s necessary for it to be put out there, for it to be seen, because it’s a part of its purpose. I know making art is not saving the world, but I do think it contributes to the beauty of the world we share, and for me, my sanity. Posting it feels cathartic. I don’t care if anyone wants to buy it or comments on it, it’s a small act of courage for me, that is all.

Sometimes I really think we share the same brain, or heart. Photography and writing epitomize every word of this entry for me, but my courage is hiding under a rock somewhere...or my tumblr ;) Thank you for sharing your work with us all, I truly feel that I see a fragment of your soul with every piece you share. It is an exchange of honesty through many perspectives--whether my translation is complimentary or contradicting to yours-- that perspective is the magnetic force that binds us together. I know your intentions where not self seeking, but I feel the need to tell you that I appreciate you and your art. I would LOVE to have one of your pieces contribute to the love we share in our home.
I just saw this comment Aericka! Thank you for your lovely, encouraging, eloquent words!
