I am working on a post on Substack, titled, What does a Next Chapter Look Like?
I am bringing an offline discussion to online about my five year creative journey and what I am planning on next. Post will likely drop tomorrow.
Spent my Saturday doing a studio visit. Almost there for 2 hours learning more about the artist’s background, how they transitioned from painting to pen, books and artists that inspire them, and their preparation for an upcoming solo exhibition in the fall. Thank you to artist Michael A. Booker for the invitation. You can explore his work on his website:

Did I make it to the DC/DOX Film Festival screening of Earth, Wind & Fire (To Be Celestial vs That’s the Weight of the World)?
Not letting the DC heat and humidity get me. Two documentary screenings and one gallery reception ✅.
