  Happy New Year! I hope the holidays treated you well and you were able to celebrate. Even though my whole house has been vaccinated and boosted my husband who travels to New York quite often came down with Covid after a trip right before Christmas. We were forced to "Pivot" like the rest of us have been doing for two years now and he had to quarantine. So our plans to travel drastically changed and he lived in "My Haunted Basement" for almost 2 weeks. It was a bummer and I am just getting over yet another disappointment from this horrible epidemic.  I decided to branch out and bring some artwork to a really cool little neighborhood in Alabama called "Homewood". If you haven't been, its very artsy, with a very cool metaphysical shop  called Ritual+Shelter and home to the most delicious cookies I have ever had;  "Cookie Fix" .  Ritual+Shelter is an amazing store and really vibes with my work.
