It’s our anniversary-ish (!?) - we made it to six months!
Six months ago I gave myself permission to start writing this newsletter without a plan. Since then, a lot has happened. I had my (first/first solo) art show, started teaching again, got my first artist studio and also got rid of my first artist studio (they raised the rent), and a myriad of other celebrations, losses, and everything in between.
Letting go of my need for this space to be perfect was the first real step I took towards being a little kinder to myself. So far, what I’ve loved about writing to ya’ll is that it’s constant but not rigid. I’ve committed to sharing something with you at least once a month but that’s my only requirement. There’s a lot of work on my plate for the next few weeks and this last week has been a lot. So, this letter is short and sweet but I plan to send out another later this month that is messy and meaty.
But in the mean time I made ya’ll a little playlist in honor of 💞 Venus being in Pisces 💞 from now until 2/19:
Here are some other things that are helping me figure my shit out right now:
Working on this made me feel useful after all the LNY violence
Paolo’s Community Acupuncture Clinic in Glassel Park - don’t miss the next one!

see you soon,
