Since I've been embarking on this journey with my art, I made a vow to myself, as well as those who've come to witness this journey with me, that I would be as open and authentic as I can. My pieces are all driven by feelings and emotions. "Bed of Roses" is no different. Out of all of my paintings, this piece took the most amount of time. 8 days and over 30 hours of dedication. For a while I've been telling myself that I wanted to work on a piece that required me to take my time, to teach me patience.

Dear Lovebug,

How are you? I know you may not read this, probably never will, and that's perfectly okay. This open letter will allow me to get my feelings out...I NEED to get theses feelings out. I don't care what anyone thinks, what anyone else has to say. I absolutely don't care. You've blocked me everywhere but I don't care, I will get my feelings out and have my voice heard even if that means it has to go through the whole world and internet...

Yesterday's painting REALLY had me trippin', thinking "am I going crazy?" for two reasons:

REASON NUMBER ONE.
The video playback was flipped horizontally. When I'm finished going live and I look back over the recording, every video the paint is on the right side as it SHOULD be. However, for some strange reason yesterday, when I finished going live and looked over the video I was VERY confused.
