Impact from Helene: I lost my gallery and working studio space because of water intrusion and mold. I no longer have a space to create nor sell my work. I had a small amount of damage to my home, and the time and energy it is taking for us to recover as a community is significant.
The ask: I would truly appreciate if folks can purchase some of my giclees from my printer in California. This supports me financially when I am without a space to store inventory. I love the energetic exchange and hope that it brings joy to those who can support me right now!
