This is a custom made, framed embroidered art piece inspired by you. Provide a song, quote, or resiliency riot cry for 2021, and receive my interpretation of that to decorate your space. As so many of us creatives did during the pandemic, I discovered a new artsy medium to keep my hands busy, off of social media, and far, far away from the news. I also had the unexpected pleasure of being purposeful in connecting with folks that I have been blessed to support me through various parts of my life. To express my gratitude to them for this, I began to create embroidery art honoring who I loved and knew them to be, and then sending it to them in the mail as a surprise token of my appreciation. This has manifested into sending art to friends of friends - an action of gratitude by proxy!
