Lately, the spiritual climate of the world has felt… heavy. Unsettling…to say the least. Hard to move through without carrying pieces of it with me.

So I gave myself something simple.
A promise to create—every single day.

Not for money.
Not for pressure.
Not to prove anything.

Just to create.

Even if it’s messy. Even if it only takes a few minutes. Even if it’s quiet.

It’s been my way of slowing down in a world that keeps asking for more.
A moment that belongs only to me.
A space where I can express, release, and just be.

And somehow, in the middle of all of this, I’ve found a little bit of peace again.

We’re nine days in, and I’m doing this alongside other artists showing up for themselves too—and that feels really special.

Just creating to create.
And letting that be enough.

It’s been a while since I’ve finished a painting… especially one that made me this nervous.

Sometimes the fear of failure takes over my whole body and mind. My ADHD gets loud, the doubt piles on, and I freeze. But this time I pushed through.

This piece was inspired by Selena and what she meant to me growing up—trying to understand who I was as a half Indian, half Latina girl in South Texas. She showed so many of us that we could be strong, kind, funny, stylish, and unapologetically ourselves.

I was also inspired by the incredible women in this show, especially my best friend, Raisa Melendez (she curated it!) She takes on challenges, reflects deeply, and carries her talent with humility and structure (very Capricorn of her). Watching her pushes me to keep showing up for myself.

The world has felt heavy lately, but the strong women in my life—my mom, my best friend, and the artists in this show—remind me to keep going.

To create.
To show up.
And to do it with sass, grace, love, compassion… and definitely smarts.

I’m proud of this piece and honored to be part of this show. ✨

Come visit “Armas De Mujeres” at NoMas Arte Studio tomorrow evening! A free art show with 40+ artists!

appy belated 11th birthday to my whole heart, Miss Olive 🤍✨
I don’t even have the words for how special this girl is. She’s the sweetest soul, the calmest presence, the smartest little protector, and the softest cuddler. She’s my therapy dog, my daily joy, my reminder that there is good in the world.

Olive just knows. She knows when I’m hurting, she knows when someone needs a lean or a cuddle, and she gives nothing but pure love. She’s the mascot of Big Vibes Art House, the unofficial greeter, the emotional support for everyone who walks into my life.

I’m so blessed to have 11 years with her, and I pray for so many more. She’s truly the best dog I’ve ever had — my little gift, my proof that I’m doing something right, and the light of my life.
Love you forever, Olive girl 🤍🐾✨

The older I get, the more I feel time moving like water—always flowing, always slipping through my hands if I don’t pause to cup it gently.

When I sit with my mother and my Nani, when our voices weave together in stories and smiles, I feel the threads of generations tightening around me, reminding me who I am.

Nature holds me the same way. The river whispers flow, the trees remind me to stand rooted, the air teaches me to breathe softer. Out there, with the sun on my skin and the earth beneath my feet, I find myself as an artist again—colors, textures, feelings pouring through me, shaped by the stillness.

Life asks us to move quickly, but the soul asks us to slow down. To watch the light change across the sky. To hold our loved ones close. To listen for the beauty in the ordinary.

Here, in this space of family and earth, I remember: art is not just what I make—it is how I live, how I love, how I pause.
