Inseparable Facets

You can’t hold the moonlight, you have to love it as it is. 18 x 24 inches. acrylic on paper. 2017.

Being chronically ill and being professional don’t exactly seem like they go together, and I struggle with how to represent myself to others and be taken seriously.  I’m not able to separate the parts of me that are sick, from the parts of me that are intelligent, skilled, and focused. I have to address the whole, or the parts suffer and wreck me.

So I’m setting out to just be myself, writing about art and life, and embracing that you may take it or leave it.
