Galentine's Art Show

I am so grateful to everyone who came to celebrate art and artists at the 2nd annual Galantine’s Show hosted by atxGals at the South Congress Hotel. It was a night full of celebration, new inspirations, uplifting conversations and a beautiful opportunity to enjoy old and form new connections!! All this while supporting a wonderful cause with SAFE and Girls Empowerment Network!

Art is all about finding strength through vulnerability and paying it forward. I sincerely appreciate the opportunity to do that day in and day out through your continuous love and support!

Every time I do an art show I am consumed by creating pieces channeling all the energy and excitement that comes with showcasing my art and then sharing something so personal in front of people from all walks of life. This exact feeling use to make me really nervous and truth be told it sometimes still does. However now these conversations and connections

are the highlight of my evening. Rumi says it best; "When you do things from your soul, you feel a river moving in you, a joy.”
