Opt out tomorrow!

This is how you grow a spine and stand up to bigots and bullies.

A big part of the process for me is prepping my own surfaces. I think it behooves any serious painter to learn how to stretch and prime their own canvas. This is flax linen which can be very finicky. You have to stretch it to within an inch of its life otherwise it will slack and sag once it’s dry.

I have a website now for my paintings. So far it covers the personal artwork that I’ve made from 2022-24. I’ll
Be updating this with new pieces as I complete them. I’d like this to become my primary web home as I move away from Meta platforms.

Kind of a weird factoid, but my Aunt is friends with Yo-Yo Ma. She met him while being a nanny to his childhood friends kids. He’d come by to visit, but she had no idea who he was until I told her.
