Inspiration

It's been a long time since I've felt really inspired to work. How long, I thought? Since the election. I am so disheartened that the tone of this administration can affect even this. And I keep working anyway, and trust that in some way it will matter, that putting positive energy out into the universe will make a difference. 

​And then, my friend texted me that she was wheeled down a hallway on her way into surgery, and she passed my work, and suddenly yelled "I KNOW THAT ARTIST"--and it mattered to her that my work was there. 

​And my work is up in a beautiful friend's office, and she says that it changes the whole tone of the place, and that her clients notice, and comment. 

​And so, I'll keep on going. More intentionally, regardless of inspiration, working with the intention of play, and joy, even now.
