I hope you had a nice weekend. It was a learning experience for me. I didn’t know how I was in pain witnessing ICE in DC. I have felt for sometime that we were under attack from the government. It honestly hurts worrying about my West Indian family and friends. I walked with Alec to my favorite Rotti shop and it was gone. They moved away in the middle of the night. My heart was broken. I had been to that shop most of my life with my dad. A great loss exists where that taste lives and all the carnival stories converged.
It will be a fun and beautiful show. I get to hangout with friends and family and show art never publicly seen before. Lots of art big and small to pick up too.
I’m excited to tell you I have an art show in November 16th. It’ll be from 10am -4 pm at Pure Panic Comics. My good friends own it. It should be a fun day where I show art no one has ever seen outside of my studio.
A time live is a time to make art. Foot prints in time.
I hope as I get closer to the show I can share with you more and you might come and join me there.
I think in a lot of ways I’m just trying to kind of figure out the best way to be an artist. Like being super productive is great and all, but if there’s nothing behind it, it doesn’t really matter. So I listened to those voices and had to tell me to put the paint in the in certain places. And when there’s nothing to be heard you go back to what you know your traditions, your cultures, the beauty and the simplicity of patterns and textiles. Looks like breathing you just do..
