It was bittersweet to finally be able to leave Louisiana and fly back to Florida yesterday. But I walked into a bunch of birthday packages that were sent while I was away ( my bday was 8/15 and it seems like months ago!!)
One package had 2 pieces of artwork that I just wanted to share! When I imagine what my ancestors look like, this one image in particular is what I see! And to see it on canvas… I’m just amazed! It’s titled The Spark.
I looked up the artist and she has many works of art themed around witchcraft, mysticism, and the metaphysical with subjects that look like many ethnicities. I will definitely be making a future purchase
Funny thing is, these came from my parents and I was just with them lol!! But I think I can say with certainty now that they “get me”!
Happy Belated birthday! It’s great your parents are finally accepting what you do. My cousin is studying to become an Orisha and my Aunt and her brothers and sisters are always putting her down, degrading her about this change she has begun. I told my cousin, its just because they don’t understand that you are evolving into a better you…you have awakened and because they’re minds are still closed off from reality, they think you are one of the evil ones.
So I am so happy that your family has opened themselves to see what you see.
Oh gosh I completely forgot to add that! Hillary Wilson is the artist. Her Instagram and website were included on a card in the package, not sure if she has other social media but I bet she does!

My heart goes out to your cousin. I was afraid of a similar response but was happily surprised. But I know it must be so difficult for her right now. Sending support and strength
