- I'm truly speechless. I had no expectations of New York before coming here and I must honestly say, I have been treated with the utmost respect and kindness. I'm still trying to process how lucky I am.

I've been enjoying the museums, galleries, book stores, coffee shops and ramen π but the highlight of this trip are the people I've met. I'm blown away by their openness, generosity, and refreshing perspectives on how they see the world. In a short amount of time I've been welcomed and greeted with smiles and even in the hustle and bustle stage that is New York, people have taken the time to slow down for me so I can catch up! To stop what they are doing and lend me a hand with directions on the subway, to listen to me talk about the things I care about or to just be real & authentic as they share their stories. I'm incredibly inspired and thoroughly enjoying this cultural hub with an affinity for creativity.

I would also like to take the time to say thank you to Marta, Maiya, and Julia for hosting me in the most tasteful apartment I have ever laid eyes on. I'd like to Thank Zach, Jen, and Raul for creating a magnificent show last night. I'm so grateful to have been a part of the 7th Annual Supersonic Invitational at Spoke Art with some of my all-time favorite artists. What a blessing!

And to everyone who came out to support the show or root for me here online, I want to thank you as well. You are as much a part of this journey as I am and I can't take all the credit. Behind every painting and every word I say, I've been influenced by people like you who take the time to care, reach out, support and contribute to keeping me accountable and aligned with my goals! You've become a part of me.

As a side note, I'm bundled up and cozy cause I've also never experienced cold like this since 2002. #doublesocks #doublescarves #itsworthitπ―
