BACKSTORY to “Cove #19”
What else, besides rearrange your room, find an amazing FREE desk on Craigslist, listen to inspiring podcasts, dance wildly to in my room to @porangui and update your website than to paint while you are quarantining?!
Which is why I called this piece “COVE #19”
Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not an idiot to think that naming a painting like this might turn a few people off.
But my point in giving this work this name is to illustrate that we, YOU and I, can always make beauty for ashes.
And my recent experience with Covid was nothing short of beautiful.
So much support.
So much love.
In fact I thrived through my mild case of Covid.
Just like I have been thriving, as an artist, more than I ever have since 2020.
Now there were some struggles during this painting, but not because I felt really sick.
Because it was challenging and I’m proud of myself for sticking with it and utilizing my time to not only create a piece I’m proud of but also that I choose to keep taking personal responsibility for my life.
I choose to keep believing and to keep having faith and to changing my mindset to line up with truth.
And what is truth?
Truth is is my creativity leads me to God and my creativity heals me and others.
And truth is God is good.
And truth is you and I are powerful co-creators of our own lives.
So who wants to own “COVE #19” as a constant reminder that things aren’t always as they seem.
Cuz maybe INSIDE everything, lies a miracle and more magic than you could ever comprehend.
What will you choose to believe?!
What will you choose to focus on?!
