“I hope you will go out and let stories, that is life, happen to you, and that you will work with these stories... water them with your blood and tears and your laughter till they bloom, till you yourself burst into bloom.”
― Clarissa Pinkola Estés
"Dead Marilyn" 2004. I found this one only photo of a lovely ink on silk painting I painted for a store on commission, I made it into a cushion and it was sold to a buyer overseas. Yes there was a time where I tried my hand at making a living from this skill, as I have many, and as many artists before me have. Painting on silk for fans was a popular Victorian practise by many well know artists.
