'Paper Vernacular'

In a sequential art show in Joplin, MO at the Spiva Center for the Arts. 'Paper Vernacular', with Emi Gennis and Cole Closser. Opening this weekend, reception is Friday evening (January 5th). I won't be able to attend, fighting a strep infection. It isn't much fun, but it did yield this artist's statement.

Mental Health

I've published and deleted this post a few times. It makes me very uneasy having it up for anyone to read. I don't typically discuss my experiences with mental illness with people I don't know, but I wrote it in hopes it will help others that may be suffering and go towards putting an end to the stigma attached to mental illness. It may not help anybody, I don't know. I'll probably take it down again one of these days. I’ve been fighting depression, anxiety and suicidal thoughts nearly all of my life. I first felt something ‘wrong’ in my head when I was nine years old, although at the time (and for many years afterwards) I didn’t know what ‘it’ was. I didn’t have a label for it. I would suddenly feel sad or scared for no reason. I was frozen with fear and confusion much of the time and I couldn’t understand how everyone else around me could be so happy. To top it off, for some reason I would feel guilt and shame for feeling that way. It was pretty confus
