About the event
Join me on Saturday, May 16 from 1 to 2-ish at the Museum of Tulsa History // MOTH.
I’ll be sharing the story of how I found my way to painting, why I chose to stay, and what it looks like to follow something unexpected later in life. Leaning into creativity in all of its mysterious paths, and what happens when perimenopause and painting meet.
I'll be in conversation with the absolutely limitless Julia Wolov, a writer/actor/editor/an one of my oldest friends, and together we are going to talk about creativity in all its weird, winding, wonderful forms. About what it actually takes to let go of the thing that made sense and move toward the thing that calls you. That particular kind of brave.
