In the relatively short amount of time that I have known Mira Brower, I have learned so many nuggets of love wisdom. Mira taught me how to say that I would rather have a raw heart than a closed one, rather a broken heart than no heart. This trashed cartoon came out of me a long while ago, now, but it was shortly after I got my new Apple Pencil and didn't know how to use it well yet. By the time Mira got her hands on this doodle, my mother had recently died. I didn't know that what she saw in the image was going to be clutch in my grieving process. I'm so grateful for the creative collaborations that are just bubbling up left and right between us. This stunning human is making beautiful art inspired by her inner emotional cosmos. I find myself longing, daily, to hide in her art studio with her and spend all our time making more art together. Do you have creative besties? How do you like to create with others? |
Today's cartoon is the glorious reimagining of a drawing I didn't know what to do with until one of my Patreon supporters added just the magic it needed to bring this image back from the trash pile. |
