Mab Graves

My latest fascination. There are many artists and actors that move me to the core, and I go thru this mini mirror revelation. I used to do it as a kid, when I saw a particular movie , I would go home and become the character. Perhaps as a youngster dealing with divorce an other drama - it was somehow an escape for me. I have always done my collage work, played with dolls another form of going into my other world. But what I love about Mab is she has maintained and incorporated her toys into her adulthood life. Peter pan is a book that always brings me back into the reality that I never truly want to grow up an have always struggled with never feeling like I fit in anywhere. Perhaps because I never really grew up despite mothering four lovely boys. As of late, since my grave's disease;Thyroid eye disease kicked -in an robbed me of any energy, I feel like I am slowly recovering. The removal of a cyst in my upper right parathyroid gland has me feeling a spark of renewel. I need more people like Mab Graves to be who they are for who they are an how they are ,,, fully transparent an unapologetic for this clarity. I have often felt that my transparency as a person ,,,, it;s like women don;t know how to deal with me or I just feel misunderstood often. I hide... I do my work, I do my life an stay far away from groups. Time is so precious and I adore this artist and the inspiration that wells up inside me brings me renewed joy... Forever Young.... my inner Pippi Longstocking never left.Forever young is doing what you love every day. I have arrived. Mab Graves , I adore you.
