About artwork: I have an ongoing series of small scale selfies. Painted from memory, I recall moments of my past that were poignant. In 2020 I was gardening for an elderly woman who had asked me to plant an aster. I was in a rush and wanted to get home to paint, so I wasn't being careful. I slipped on the shovel as I was digging the hole for the aster to be placed, and fell backwards causing a large gash in my back. I was taken to the ER and needed two layers of stitches. I laid on the hospital bed for what felt like hours waiting for a doctor to come stitch me up.
