A friend once said, I'm so amazed how far you've come, with parents who crossed an ocean so young. This weekend, as our tight knit community rose in support of justice and fairness, I walked a little prouder knowing just how far my family has traveled.

The electric depth of the #procreate painting is still missing. In the real mural's defense, it's almost impossible to photograph😂

I love painting in a bathroom with a tub, the breaks in between layers are very comfortable.

I teach a unit for my second grade students based on the Australian origin myth The Rainbow Serpent. They get to design a fantasy snake with unusual skin camouflage, habitat and unlikely prey. May I use this work as an example of a cleverly camouflaged specimen?

This is delightful. In graduate school I was asked by a snake mom to make a house for her pet ball python Zeus. I was and continue to be terrified of snakes. She asked me to meet Zeus. It was the most interesting "commission" as a clay artist I ever accepted...

I create to understand all emotions. Sadness comes from a variety of uncontrollable situations: injustice, imbalance, loss... Creating contains emotion, placing it within boundaries so that something else may grow.

A favorite for me and my son🙂
