Commitment Issues
Happy Blog Day!!! Thank you for stopping by! This week, I’ll focus more on what actually brought me to start this blog. In short, I desired to build structure, consistency, and hold myself publicly accountable along the way. Thus far these practices in their early stages, are grooming a much healthier routine and head-space, which are really proving to be key ingredients to centering my world. It seems to be pretty common, that as a creator, I too struggle a lot with mental and emotional imbalances. As it has been the case most of my life, I feel it has made me into who I am today. A 31 year…

2013
Hello again! Thank you so much for returning, or if this is your first time- Welcome! And thanks for being here! Let’s start where we left off from last week’s post… but be advised, the best version of this story, is the long version. Don’t say I didn’t warn ya 🙂 It’s 2013 and I live with my grandparents in Raton, NM. Day to day, I help with gram, by this time I am a housekeeper at the Microtel, and in my free time; complete commission paintings! I’m so blessed to be where I am at this time in my life; with my Grammy, close to family, and making art…

Renaissance
Happy Thursday! It’s officially been 4 weeks since my first blog post, and I’ve gotta say I’m pretty excited about the slow and steady growth thus far. I started out knowing that it would take some time and consistency to gain traction, and though I’m not quite where I want to be yet, seeing any progress at all, is fulfilling to me ? Choosing this week’s topic was a bit tough, as I’ve been keeping a list of topics, and I can’t decide which I want to elaborate on first. I named this “Renaissance” for obvious reasons, and want to go back a little bit and reflect on the restart…

Creative COVID Coaster
Hello There! And thanks for returning! I figure this week, we’ll just go ahead and fly right into the eye of the storm, and chat about COVID. I understand how this topic can be a touchy one, but don’t worry, I’m no expert so we’re not going into any depths of that sort. My goal is mostly to talk about what the quarantine has meant for me and my progression as a creative. I wasn’t sure if it’d be wise to speak on the subject, but I know it’s the obvious elephant, in every single room, everywhere you go, and it’s wearing a mask… haha. *wink wink* Ultimately I think…

In the Beginning…
In The Beginning…There was grandma. Everything that surrounded her, was touched by her radiant and gentle soul. Everyone who had her in their world knew, when by her side, life and love: was good- And truly she made life, so very good... The first memories I have of learning to create, start with my maternal grandmother, Elinora. Grandma and I spent a lot of time together when I was growing up, and fairly often we were making something in one way or another. It’s hard to pin point the age that it all begin at, but I know by the time I was at least 5 I had already…
