Inspiration

I want to take a moment to recommend this beautiful book by the artist Rakefet Hadar. I don’t usually give shout-outs to books, but today I would like to make an exception.

When I was a full time art teacher in an elementary/middle school I strategically mapped out “Connie Days” at the beginning of each new year using my ten sick days.

It was a quarter past midnight when I heard the news that Francisco Toledo died on Thursday, September 5th. Toledo, a very prominent Mexican artist and activist, was a huge inspiration to me.
