This week’s theme is justice. It is the bone that runs down my spine and holds me together. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr thoughts on justice inspire and give me a vision of what it looks like.

Art of the Month
Lion of Judah
He is the source of everything. He created everything. In Him we have our being. In Dancing During the Storm, the first short story is about the creation. I think it is an appropriate place to start.
This month we will be reminded of the Lion of Judah so no matter where we go or what happens, we will be reminded of the one with the lion share of power.
Where Do You Find Hope?
How you approach 2020 determines what you hope in. Where do you find hope? Is it in yourself? Your family and friends? Your faith? Your job?
This year has shown us that those things are not reliable.
I find my hope in Jesus Christ. He has taught me that He is faithful and I can trust him. When everything around me is shaky and unreliable, daily time in His word reminds me He is constant.
This week, think about where your hope is. What are you relying on to get through the week? Where do you find hope?
Monday Morning Image
In place of still photography, I will replace it with video and sound to create thought provoking art for the month of August. I did the video work, but the music is by William Rosati, titled Sulking.
As these leave were floating in the water, it made me think of how this year is passing for some. We are the leaves just floating at whatever pace the water sets for us.

Art Can Add To Your Life
I have created a new collection and placed my art on some fun stuff. Each design has a story, whether it is the Brown is Beautiful which speaks to the beauty of all brown skinned people, or the Royal Blood Drops which reminds of the precious blood my people lost in the middle passage.
