Thoughtful conversations with the people of Maine

What you see sometimes isn't the full story. What I post on Instagram, it's good and it's therapeutic, but I also work my ass off and I'm gonna continue to do that cuz I have no other option.

I've had dreams of brush strokes. I have dreams of how layers can go onto layers of how colors interact. And it's like four o'clock in the morning and then you wake up and now let's do that. Let's make that happen. That's what I'm doing this for.

I wasn't ready to really fully embrace and acknowledge how much the details of my life have really impacted who I am. I saw it as a negative and I've reached a place where I now know that although it was difficult and there was a darkness, a lot of light comes out of darkness and all of those stages were very important in helping me to reach the place where I am today.
