Do your shadow work. Walk the talk. A better world, and a better humanity, starts with you.
I value loyalty. I value truth. I value the heart and the love that is possible through it… and I move through the world in a way that builds people. Not in a way that breaks them. I don’t like to criticize people, and if I do say something, it is always with good intentions,ContinueContinue reading “Do your shadow work. Walk the talk.

Does Inner Child Artist Oracle do what I say it does?
To be perfectly honest, this project has given me more than I could’ve hoped for. Over the four years that it took to create, (avoidance, maybe?!?), I healed so many past traumas, many of which were beyond my own conscious awareness. I’m happy to say that I’m not the girl that started this project anymore.ContinueContinue reading “Does Inner Child Artist Oracle do what I say it does?”
How Inner Child Artist Oracle Came To Be: The Progression of the Process is Sticky Sometimes
My inner child is truly enjoying herself now! The deck started out small, and was meant for personal use only, but it transformed itself many times as I went along. It soon became huge and MESSY!!! And that is OK, as the process for creating it felt huge and messy. There was lots of scribblingContinueContinue reading “How Inner Child Artist Oracle Came To Be: The Progression of the Process is Sticky Sometimes”
Inner Child Artist Oracle is Done, Diddly-Un!!!!

Dude, this is happening!
I have to finish editing 22 stories in the guidebook for Inner Child Artist Oracle. The stories are from my inner child’s perspective, and some of them are not easy to write, and even harder to read. The guidebook. We all have our stories. So this is me, wearing my heart on my sleeve, asContinueContinue reading “Dude, this is happening!”
Inner Child Artist: WIP!
Are you happy? Were you happy as a child? Do you know how to be truly happy? 🥰 Emotions are intrinsic, and must be created from within. Happiness is something you become. It can’t be found in other people, in relationships, in travel, in work, or in luxury belongings… Happiness is something that you mustContinueContinue reading “Inner Child Artist: WIP!”
Inner Child Artist Oracle
A deck for changing your story… Y’all… I have been working on an oracle deck called Inner Child Artist since early 2018. I got the promo deck on the day my father passed. Needless to say, I had to put it down for a while until my heart could handle it again. I miss myContinueContinue reading “Inner Child Artist Oracle”
Drawing is the perfect distraction!
What in the hell would I do, on those days when my head spins and spins with shit I can’t control, without art to distract me? I would definitely be on lock down somewhere, just sayin’. Me and my Dad It’s also a good reminder. We can thank God for our creativity on the daysContinueContinue reading “Drawing is the perfect distraction!”
Inner Child Artist: The How’s and Why’s
Does the child within us actually ever really grow up? These are my drawings in response to the cards in my Inner Child Artist deck. It’s hard to say which I prefer: the initial imagery or the elicited imagery… Inner Child Artist was created over the many YEARS I spent teaching elementary art. Much ofContinueContinue reading “Inner Child Artist: The How’s and Why’s”
Some draw it out; Others sing it…
My son sings it. And he’s so good. I love it. I think it’s important. And beautiful. ❤️
A Family Reunion and Another Funeral
Life really is like the Wheel of Fortune. Things that go down always come back up again. That is a good and a bad thing. Either way… it’s a thing. The bad thing about funerals is that someone you love has died. The good thing about funerals is that it brings you together with yourContinueContinue reading “A Family Reunion and Another Funeral”
