“What do you want”

“I don’t know how to answer that”

“Why not?”

New work. Marinating ideas. First word on what's next.

You definitely need to see these #headshots from my #photoshoot with @vaughn33 - lucky to be quarantining with these lovelies! 💐

When #whatsnext feels unknowable, it feels good to design the #nextstep for your #embroidery project 😍 #fezembroidery #moroccanembroidery

Teaching my #first #paintnsip tonight, and these are my four trial run ideas (first is copy of Van Gogh)... which one should I teach to beginners? 1, 2, 3, or 4?

After abruptly losing my job (and home and future plans) two weeks ago, I feel like I’m finally getting settled into this new normal. Like a lot of you, I’m figuring out this #quarantinelife and starting to sketch out ideas

clouded paths carry
us toward this unexpected
horizon. dawn? dusk?

So hard to know what the future holds - or even the next 24 hours - but I’m always grateful for some quality time on the #beachesofmorocco

#tetouanembroidery often -always? - uses this doubled brick stitch to fill the hand drawn shapes, and often outlines some or all shapes in black 🎉

Finally finished the #nextlevel of this #moroccanembroidery I’ve been working on. Crazy excited to design the next step 😍

#hiking : happy, thank you, #moreplease
