Memories of Pain

"You know, people go on and on about [how] you have to forgive and forget to move past something. No, you don't. You don't have to forgive and you don't have to forget to move on. You can move on without any of those things happening. You just become indifferent, and then you move on."

-Taylor Swift, CBS Sunday Morning, August 25th 2019

I believe that pain is a speeding train traveling in the opposite direction of growth. Move off the tracks so you don’t get run over. Watch it zoom past and wave goodbye. It can be a tremendous healing process to incorporate memories of pain into my artwork which is what I have done with the upcoming Place Mat: Spellbook series.

Have a Pleasant Day.
