Does this count, @squashblossomsocial? Making a reel and being in hurry-capture-while-cute mode is the antithesis of my creative flow, but hey, I’m grateful to show to my work to so many followers. I had the realization the other day that I have as many followers to fill up our largest venue, the Belk Theater, twice. That’s wild to think about that I have two theaters full of people interested in what I do. Thanks for being along for the ride, y’all. 🥹

"I Can Make It Right" is a piece about using the power of paint to create things that don't exist. I long for experiences I can never have, where I can hang out and form memories with my mom and my grandmother at my age now. Above me is my mom at her current age, who is happily also benefitting from this magic moment. I so desperately wish I could know them as women, not through my child eyes, and exchange joy and advice. It would heal and nourish us then and now, as depicted by the two (R)obins (my mom's name and the two birds, one feeding and one crying for food). In this crafted memory, we are sharing a laugh after my grandmother puts something (a funny, sparkly hat) on her head. We can have these tender moments despite their hard lives. By painting it, I can make it right.

“Flight or Flight Mode” is about the fear I’ve been stuck in for the last chapter of my life. Animals lash out in fear, and seem flighty or violent but are really just wounded (broken wing/bloody tooth). It’s about how coping mechanisms can become character flaws. It’s about missing home but not being sure where home is.
