I hope everyone is having a laid-back New Year's day and keep that in motion for the rest of the year. Remember, most of the things we stress about are minuscule in the grand picture. Don't sweat the small things. You are the creator of your future.

Doing one last market table today in the lobby of the office building where I have my studio. Planning to be here all day and hoping it’ll be worth the effort. C’mon holiday shoppers! 😅🎄🤞🏼#art #painting #CoSoArt #CoSoArtists

NEWS: Houston Police confirm emergency crews responded to the home of Texas Senator Ted Cruz this evening due to a 14 year old with "self-inflicted wounds" - apparently "stabbed herself in the arm" - Ted's daughter is 14 years old and recently (January 2022) came out as bisexual and made several TikTok videos discussing how she does not agree with her father's political views. Being a 14 year old daughter of a prominent right wing politician cannot be easy. Here's hoping she is okay.

A Republican state representative in VA just put forward a bill for consideration next year that will strip trans individuals of access to medical care. Amanda Chase is the vile human being behind this hateful bill, SB 791: "Save Adolescents from Experimentation (SAFE) Act."

If you live in VA, please contact your state reps immediately and tell them to stop this bill in its tracks and to publicly rebuke Amanda Chase.

America's vets, not Trump, lowered the flag over the WH.

Part of me is happy about all the news. Im happy when bad guys get caught. But the other part is so sad for our country. How did we get here?? How do we stop it from happening again?? Where do we go from here?? How can we UNITE??

Anyone else feel a sense of disbelief that the statement “The President was up late rage tweeting” is now part of the lexicon?
