In the shadows

I’ve always wanted to be in the shadows. My one goal when I left the military was to hide. However, becoming an artist requires anything but. I often find myself in uncomfortable situations and inevitably there is growth. One of my classmates the other day made a compass to the uncomfortable. A device to lean into the places that are scary and that we want to avoid, he said that those were the ones helping him grow. I appreciated his take on the artwork and maybe I should make my own guiding device. For now, I’ll take photos and share a little bit at a time.
