  • Remembering

    Remembering walks in the forest with my dad, Hillary Valentine, 

    warm summer days, cool fall evenings, 

    sweater weather shared with sis and mom, 

    watched storms come in, 

    Super 8 movie of the trees with the changing leaves,

    yellow, orange, gold leaves piled on the ground,

    kids rolling in piles, staining clothes, who cares, 

    30 years from now and still recall days with Dad and little kids and trees with love.

  • Creativity in Action

    A heartfelt thank you to the enthusiastic members of the Chicago Calligraphy Collective and everyone who made the Artists Book House event so meaningful! I’m deeply grateful for the CCC’s talent and generosity in creating the Weathergram outreach. It was so wonderful to see art bringing people together, creating new friendships, and sharing stories. Here’s to more moments like this filled with creativity and connection!
