Duck, Duck, Goose
This summer marked a significant milestone as my daughter turned 11. Our conversations began to evolve, touching on important subjects like body autonomy, sexuality, puberty, and consent. These topics, which are so central to growing up and navigating the world, also connect deeply with the values I care about, especially in a time of crucial political change.
Through my art, I’ve been reflecting on these conversations, using birds and flowers as symbols of natural development, personal freedom, and community. The color palettes and compositions of each piece in this collection are inspired by my hope for peace, courage, and equity for our future generations.
In a world where political noise can often feel overwhelming and make us feel voiceless, I believe that expressing our values—whether through art or discussion—matters. Our daughters are watching, learning from how we use our voices.
"Duck, Duck, Goose," launching on Election Day, November 5, is my act of manifestation—an extra vote to the universe for a leader with integrity.
