📝 These past few months since I've been recovering from cancer treatment & gaining my strength back, I have been focusing 😌 on writing my memoir. This will entail the creative & emotional journey behind my "Twin Dedication" series.
I feel there is a reason I am still here, as although the odds were stacked against me with my cancer diagnosis last fall as I share a rare immune blood disorder with Suzanne, somehow I've made it through 🙏
In fact, my tests 🙃 now show no signs of cancer and I have to believe 💙 I'm truly meant to stick around for a bit.
I've used this tumblr app as a diary though the years, not really caring if I reached a large audience as this was really just a means to an end.
But now, with the completion of my 6 painting series in dedication to my identical twin Suzanne who passed from cancer in 2009 - the desire to share my art 🎨 is strong.
This exercise of journalling and now writing and editing my thoughts on my artistic journey - is in itself a cathartic and healing process.
I'm excited to push this book idea forward and share the images and story with you all in hopes that I can inspire and help others 🦋.
I truly believe that there is so much healing 💖 to be had when we work through our feelings whether it be with music, dance, writing or brushstrokes...
