“Just Me” clay, glass tile 2020 A quiet resolve is all I can muster at times… Knowing their internal drama shows itself by lashing out at me, blaming me for their failures, and regrets. Steps away, closes eyes. I take a moment to hold my breath and understand that it’s not just me. I’m not irrational. I can’t help them, they must want to help themselves. I can only change me, just me. Breathes out. I first created this sculptural bust just to test my skills after many years and it evolved into something unexpected. This artwork is an embodiment of calm and understanding that I need in my life story that is ever developing. 28
