Art is Better When it Travels

Some are bold and loud.

Others, barely a whisper.

Every smudge its own story.

I never know what’s going to show up.

But somehow, they all belong.

These gouache marks, together.

And when I turn this into a token—

a small gift for a stranger—

it becomes something more.

Not just art.

But energy, passed on.

Gratitude, presence, connection

All rolled into one.
