origins

“We are all created to create.”

Up until I was 2 years old, I was practically deaf due to multiple bouts with ear infections. My mom would tell me stories about her trying to get my attention but she couldn’t, & I laughed thinking about little me going about my business unbothered. I found myself attempting to embody what that must've been like for me. Questions ran through my mind, like “How did I interpret my world without sound?”, “Did the loss of my hearing allow for other senses to bloom and ripen?”, “Was my intuition stronger because my world was quiet?” & finally, “How has this shaped my life as a Creator?” After the questions settle, I find myself wondering if this was the catalyst for the birth and exploration of my inner world, imagining & allowing a space where silence, expression and intuition begin to flourish.

Since I can remember my world has been quiet, like the still of a warm night at sunset, filled with the wonder of color; the love for inner peace & calm that accompanies a quiet mind. It wasn't until later (toward the end of high school) my Spirit or Souls, whatever you wish to call it, was yearning for the need to express itself externally. Thus began my journey as a Creator. I can't quite explain why I began this journey, all I can say was I heard a call; a deep resonance within my being so I began to follow it. The Genesis of this Journey has not been an easy one, & I don't expect it to be. But I am grateful for every moment and every step I take. This journey of mine is a pathless land, composed of expression, creation, color, intuition & the raw emotions that accompany our human experience.
