36×48” Mixed Media Original Canvas

“For 28 years, I was out looking for myself in other people. I dug under collarbones and crevasses that were not mine, I fantasized about what it would feel like to peel back the layers and finally see the full reflection of self— glaring back at me through the eyes of someone else. Disoriented, I reached inward to rekindle what was needed to pull me through. But the embers had gone cold to the touch. My life changed when I remembered I have no other duty than to protect my own light. I am now an accomplished firekeeper— tending to all around me who have let their embers go cold, who have loved men who douse their flames, who forget what the warmth feels like”
