For the first time I'm offering a complete sketchbook of original mixed media works and drawings.  There are 8 works in total, 5 horizontal and 6 vertical.  All works are 12" x 9".  The works were made between 2/26/25 and 6/30/25.  All 1 of 1, no prints made.  

These works are part of my "The Space In Between" series.  They are more vulnerable works than I usually choose to sell.  I've edited some photos for this reason.  The earliest pieces were very inspired by my trip to Vietnam, Cambodia and northern Thailand in January & February 2025.  I gathered a lot of collage materials on that trip and took a million photographs.  The bright colors and busy streets held my attention from dawn to dusk.  I dreamed of living there while creating these works and the thought still enters my mind. 

In the final artwork of this book I reference having a monk blessing in Chiang Rai, Thailand.  I'm still wearing that bracelet.  Still holding hope but I feel like I'm standing in a pile of chaos, clawing my way out.  Being still.  Trusting the world.  And myself.  I'm working on it.  

Works:
1. Year of the Snake 2/26/25
2. Make it feel like Christmas, if you have to. 2/26/25
3. Maybe I'll run away (undated)
4. Wandering 2/28/25
5. Salty to Sweet 5/8/25
6. Words, endlessly erupting 6/19/25
7. I hope, one day 6/30/25
8. The Push Pull 6/30/25
