Changes Are On the Way!

For a long time, I wanted to be an artist. I believed people when they said I shouldn’t or couldn’t. As a result I ended up in jobs that were unfulfilling.

Today, I’m happy to announce that those days are over. I’m still a writer, but I’m more of a painter. I find joy in painting. Seeing art supplies makes me giddy with excitement. Walking into my studio brings a smile to my face. Art
