progress, huh!

So, as of today, I still don’t know what I want to put on the vase. I just know it has to be big, which means I’m about to have a pretty large canvas and no real plan yet. Slightly intimidating but exciting.

Hopefully, in Latin America, preferably the Dominican Republic or Puerto Rico, and hopefully, free! I’ve been craving to reconnect with my roots and learn how to work the material the same way my ancestors had.
