TileStroke News:
Nov. :SUPER excited! One of my artworks at the ADEC booth is acquisition by RIT Libraries. ASL HUNGRY painting is precious to me. The Deaf man in this painting is not have Deaf space/home. Lack of ASL accessible and ASL deprivation surrounding. Now, this painting goes home to library that it is so special to me because my mom was a librarian for public school near by Columbia University in NYC. In November 2019, She departed from earth in 30th anniversary. It is bittersweet. Miss you and love you, mom!
Thank you, customers who supported and bought artworks! It makes me keep going to be creative. It is so helpful when my works are going to new homes. Wish you all good holidays!
