Hope on The Horizon
This is a story about “Hope on The Horizon”. As an artist, sometimes you run into a creative mental block. This happened to your’s truly this past week as I was looking to title an image. Why do I call myself an artist? I used to think the same thing. Eventually realizing that my work…
