Isn't this a beauty? I feel calmer every time I look at it, which is what I need right now in my life cuz changes are happening. I have been applying for jobs like made this last two months, and in this week, I went from 0 jobs to potentially 4 jobs. So my time is being split, but I wanted to get this photo out to you. Life has got it's up and downs and diagonals and spirals, but we work with it and through it to the other side. It feels good to be busy again and doing things that will help me with my life goals. I see this photo as a reminder of the importance of calm, peace, and clarity when the days get busy. I hope you, too, have some time to create feelings of serenity, calm, and clarity no matter where you are or what's going on in your life.

CW: death of a loved one. This four petalled flower nestled into many other four petalled flowers form a bunch we call the hydrangea. This particular hydrangea is dried and remains preserved as a center piece on the kitchen island. A dried-up flower is an interesting concept, for its physical characteristics are still here as if stilled in time, but the life of the flower is no longer here. The petals are so fragile and brittle at this point that when it's moved around, it easily breaks. It's from these external forces that the dried-up hydrangea changes.
It makes me think of the things in life we choose to preserve from love, even if their essence is no longer present. Perhaps it's because of their essence that we chose to hold onto a physical reminder of their significance in our life. Sometime people keep the ashes or hair of those they lost or preserve their pet's body. Other times it might be a trinket/item or place that reminds us of them. No matter what it might be, it's a visual reminder of who they were and the significance they hold in our life. It's the memories shared together during this time on Earth.
So for those who have loved and loss, and who might have kept a trinket or physical reminder of who they are and what they meant to you, my heart goes out to you. May they continue to live on in your memory and from the lives of everyone who loved them. And for those who have love and not yet gone through that loss, continue to cherish and appreciate them for all that they are; for being in your life, making memories, and sharing time together on this Earth.

CW: Mentioning of s*x genitalia. Remember when I shared the photo of the stigma of the red amaryllis? Here it is again, just a bit further back to include the cute lil pollens. What really fascinated me the most when re-learning about the parts of a flower (cuz I must have I learned about this in school way back) is that the red amaryllis has both reproductive parts. When I looked even further, I discovered that these types of flowers are considered "complete" and "perfect." Where these words are idealized or absolute, there's something to be said about how we view a flower with both reproductive parts and how society views a person who is inters*x. I see this image as a reminder on how s*x is more than the binary of labeling someone as F or M based on their genitalia. As I'm not an expert on this subject, I've added some words from Cade Hildreth.
"Biological markers of s*x include:
Chromosomes – Types of chromosomal expression.
Go**ds – Organs that produce gametes (te**es or ovaries).
Hormones –Types and level of hormone secretion, which vary within and across the s*xes.
Secondary S*x Characteristics – Features that appear during puberty but are not involved with reproduction.
External Genitalia – Ge****ls visible outside the body.
Internal Genitalia – Ge****ls present within the body.
Skeletal Structure – S*x differences may be seen in the pelvis, jawbone, brow, and limb length and thickness.
Gene Expression –Levels and types of gene expression. Genes dictate the proteins made by the body. Known genes that impact s*x include DMRT1, SRY (produces Testis-Determining Factor), and Foxl 2.
Brain Structure – Brain structure characteristics (including the ratio of white matter to grey matter) and brain activation patterns vary by s*x.
Hormone Receptor Sensitivity – The response to s*x hormones can vary, depending on receptor sensitivity. Some individuals may be partially or completely insensitive to hormones, negating their effect."
We live in cishet world where people instill gender roles based on ge****ls, but our ge****ls do not dictate what we can do or how we can dress. The q***r community understands this and lives in their truths. Everyone

What does it mean to be loved romantically? I'm not sure of the answers, but this picture shares the feeling for me. To be surrounded by soft, sturdy petals that are both a nurturing comfort and one of safety. One that holds room for your light and dark energy, for the wrinkled ages of your past. I think when we continue to heal and love ourself, we create a space for others to deeply love us.
When I think of romantic relationships, I might think love is deep affection, but that could be infactuation driven by looks or lust. Maybe love is trust, but what happens when that trust is broken by deception and lies?
Perhaps love is more than one word, more than words itsself. Maybe it's a deep feeling of intuitive knowing. I thought I felt romantic love before with each new partner. But then I learned about the three types of love we experience in our lifetime.
THE FIRST LOVE is the love we experience when we're young, usually a first crush or first "real love." It's filled with intense emotions, all-consuming, and a strong bond. We learn that love isn't what we think from movies/TV, and we learn the importance of being ourselves. We figure out how to deal with heartbreak.
THE HARD LOVE is the love that hurts and pushes you to your breaking point. It brings tears, self-sacrifice, and unbearable pain. There might have been emotional manipulation, cheating, or physical abuse. We learn that love isn't about the intense highs and lows. We take time to heal, to find our self worth, and learn how to be okay being alone.
THE "I DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING" LOVE is the final love that takes you by surprised. We might still be healing from the 'hard love' and feel more protective of our emotions. This love breaks down our pre-conceived ideas and fears of what it means to be loved. Everything feels natural and easy, and that might terrify you. You gain new perspectives and come to realize it couldn't possibly be anyone else, for this love feels right and simply is.

The curve and flow of the red amaryllis flower petals feels like a dance. With the arch of the back and the ruffles of fabric moving to the beat of the music. If you were a dancing flower, what kind of song would you hear? What kind of dance would you sway to? Are you in the ballet? Is it tango? Or bachata? Another type of dance or do you move with a freedom that's undefined? And if you get bothered by the judgement of others here's your reminder from the red petal flower that flowers don't judge each other. So whether you're standing or sitting or even laying down, pick a song for the mood you're feeling and let the energy flow through you. Connect with the sounds in your own unique way. For dancing as a flower can mean anything you'd like. And we could all use an emotional release.

Before taking this photo, I saw small dropets. When I looked through the macro lens, I saw the crisp, tiny hairs with their even smaller droplets! Every time I look at this image it's almost as if I can "feel" it, like a physical response to the textures and light. This intrigue led to an urge to learn more about how these droplets came to be. I probably learned about the parts of a flower in school way back, so I'll consider this a re-learning. The three curved sections make up what is called "the stigma." It's a landing spot for creatures like bees to fertilize the flower with pollen. The stigma holds onto the pollen through the tiny hairs seen along the curves, and the droplets are wet, sticky substances used to re-hydrate the pollen.
So what you're currently seeing is the stigma of the red amaryllis flower, and this flower is the start of my next photo series: flowers in the house. I spent some time getting to know these plants I'm surrounded by through the language of photography.

This macro water image was taken within 1/1250 second. What was once a stream of flowing water seen from the naked eye becomes transformed when looking through the eye of the macro lens, freezing time in a photograph. What is it you see within this water? Take a moment before reading the rest, for I'll tell you what I see.
For me, the water becomes a glass-like rendition of a person with their arms crossed looking over their right shoulder, exuding feelings of disinterest or dissatisfied, almost annoyance at having to attend to what's over there. It's in these emotions where we gotta make a decision. How are we going to express how we're feeling while still being considerate of who or what is happening? How do we discern what these feelings are trying to tell us in order to make healthy decisions? I'm figuring out how to navigate these waters. To remind myself that my feelings aren't meant to be suppressed. It's okay to be annoyed. And it's okay to express them. But then I get concerned about how my feelings will affect others. Or if I have the "right" to be annoyed. And how to communicate my feelings effectively. So yeah...it's a process. To unlearn bad coping mechanisms, to heal from my fear of confrontation, and to be okay making mistakes along the way. It's a skill worth developing so I can live a life filled with honesty, mental wellness, and healthy relationships. It's difficult, but it's worth it.
Easter Egg: If you look really closely, there are pink flowers reflecting within the torso.

The Blue & Orange Water Butterfly. Where transformation and emotional release fly together with strength, beauty, and healing. That is what I see through this macro water photograph. Perhaps it's because I've been going through an inner healing to live life as authentically as I can. But what does that mean, exactly? It started with a desire to get out of a place that felt like mental rock bottom. From there I sought knowledge in topics such as inner healing and emotional intelligence which led to a self-awareness of how I think, act, and behave. I learned about my love language, apology language, childhood wound, personality color, attachment style, and so on. This led me to finding more information such as how to create healthy boundaries (and knowing what your boundaries are and respecting other peoples' boundaries), green flags in relationships, unlearning toxic coping mechanisms and where they stem from, and so much more. This is invaluable information that I wish everyone was taught in school instead of something I had to seek. Thankfully I'm someone who loves psychology, so it wasn't a far stretch to seek, but the majority of my life was spend learning through trial and error with unhealthy relationships and self-sabotaging behavior. And what's worse is I thought I was doing the right thing to the point where I thought it was my job to make sure everyone else was happy regardless of how I felt. And now that I'm unlearning that it sometimes feels selfish or comes out like a verbal mess, but it's part of the process.
I don't know what this kind of transformation is called, but it's an important one that I wish everyone could go through. Change is difficult and it isn't quick. But if you have a desire to grow, that's the first step. Because then you can find the strength to get in that cocoon and begin to dissolve into goop. That's where I'm in right now. I'm dissolving into goop. And as I look at this picture, I hope to come out the other side as glorious and strong as this blue and orange water butterfly.

My next few images will be dedicated to....Water! I strongly resonate with this element, in the physical, mental, and symbolic ways we've come to know and connect with water. In this image, I'm connecting with water as both a cleanse and a joy. To shower under the warm sun in nature is joy that's hard to describe, but I'm gunna try. It feels like my heart is flying and my soul is glowing with laughter. My mind and body feel cleansed, rejuvenated, and light. It's a blissful moment that feels like a gift from nature. One to enjoy and remember.
Plus, being able to be naked outside is a freeing experience all on its own. I feel connected to nature and to my inner self. I would love to have more experiences like this, and often think about what it would be like to visit a beach that allows nudity, or to spend some time within a nudist community.
I would love to be able to feel this blissful joy again in my mind, body, and soul.
I hold this experience close to my heart, in hopes of finding it again one day.

Hey again. Where my last post was as general overview of my artistic focus, this post is a personal overview so you can know a bit more about me as an individual.
I feel a strong urge to list everything out like a resume ( ), but this is a place for stories. So I suppose I'll start off my saying I'm a person who's seeking. Seeking stability in my identity, strength in my voice, and authenticity in my life. To be solid in who I am and what I stand for. Thinking that once I've done the inner work, I'll be free. And there's a truth to that. The program allowed me the time and space to focus inwards, observing what needs to be developed or healed. It's been 6 months since that time, and as of now these are the labels I'm currently choosing to describe myself to you and the values I've chosen to form my inner compass. I'm a gender-non-conforming q***r mixed race person who values authenticity and connection. I spent time in Peru to gain deeper insights into my Peruvian ancestry, and I'm so grateful for that experience. When I have financial stability, I'm planning to travel back to Peru, and more of South America. My goal is to travel full time while making my artwork, experiencing places and connecting with people. To be completely absorbed in vivid sensory details of
For now, I'm working towards this goal. Finding remote work, paying off my debts, and building towards this life, one step at a time. The path to this goal isn't clear-cut, but it's one worth taking. I'm trying, and that's the best I can do for now.
And just cuz I couldn't resist, here's a few random facts about me. The octopus is my favorite animal. I love to swim. I'm a vegetarian. And if there's music playing, I'll be dancing.
