last year I started baking bread from scratch as a way to work through my anxiety and depression, something that wasn't art related but simply a task to complete. things have been brighter, easier, and less clouded lately... so yesterday afternoon I baked some rosemary and olive oil bread (plus m loves home-baked bread). it feels really wonderful revisiting this ritual of reflection and pure process of "doing" in this current healthy, happy time.
this week in the studio.
my folks are long gone.
whenever I'm in my hometown, I make it a point to drive to a few of my past homes and just sit there. I reflect on the first time I fell in love, the first time I snuck out, the first moment of emotional abuse, my last phonecall with my grandmother, temporary homes filled with friends and love...the list goes on. this past trip I made a chronological list of places I've lived since my first memory of a home, 28 (33 including 1-4week stays). something is forthcoming, something to process it all.
