To be able to pay for the repairs without fear for the future. Two years ago those repairs would have been crippling.
So big thanks to everyone for your overwhelming support. Because of you I was able to fix the car without fear for the future. And without you I wouldn't be able to make art 🥹🥰✨

I was able to park safely and get towed to a shop with the help of my bestie Tarika. They were able to replace the alternator in time to pack up and drive home safely. Thank you Jesus, it could have been so much worse.. I feel lucky to be alive and whole.

C2E2 and ACEN were both record breakers this year! I cried after both shows for being able to do this for a living. Right after I set up for ACEN the power steering, and all electrical functions in my car went out on my car as I was exiting the highway.
