i went to this art event at Tompkins the other week. didn't plan on it but i ended up there and lucky enough for me there was open canvas space. i wanted to make something for Vylette. |
| @Tompkins Square Park - HOWL Festival/Art around the Park event. |
what i was thinking of and singing and feeling when i made it is worth more than just the visual alone.
It is, after all, just a Rainbow Heart. but the love and songs and memories i put into it are real.
i made it for the kiddies passing by, just a last minute thought to brighten the area!
i ended up poking holes in difft spots and putting difft colored yarn drips hanginging allover it.
Here is the finished painting before i added the yarn.

| ..A Mother's Love.. |
so many lil kids were like.. look look a heart! a rainbow! i love it!
one girl told me "this inspires me:)"
or people said "i like the way this makes me feel, i love your heart"

| JUSTICE FOR VYLETTE! so it made me so happy to hear parents asking their kids or kids asking their parents to try and make this at home. i suggested using fingerprints to blend in between the colors and have more fun doing it. It makes me smile to know i inspired an art project between parents and kids, with something simple they can make at home. i had the chance to tell a few about why i painted it and Vylette's story. but i knew my love for her would echo through anyone who admired it. story, or not. |
------
so that was my painting for Vylette! and on June 7th Vylette made a painting for her Momma, right outside my window.
i was having a bad day. things aren't going too well lately but i looked up from the computer and right outside my window was this huge beautiful rainbow. i have never seen one like this before. i could see where it was coming from and where it was going. the end of it was right by a church up the street where my Mom and I leave donations and offerings for & in the name of Vylette.
you can't tell here but the Arc of the Rainbow was about 3 Rainbows thick. i know it was a gift and it brightened up my day as well as the sky.
I Love You Vylette<3
