One arm for the Queen, one arm for work, and one dear friend cheering me on.

Put a little love on my heart..

I got yer back.

Cardboard, bottle caps, and straws…

Piece by piece, the toys unify, as she begins to tell me her story.

“All art is autobiographical; the pearl is the oyster’s autobiography.” Federico Fellini

Excited side 1 is complete!

“Take your broken heart, make it into art” – Carrie Fisher

“Take your broken heart, make it into art” – Carrie Fisher. Here is a recycled art portrait I made of my Mom, Sandy Miller. After losing her to cancer over a year ago, creating this piece has helped me cope with the loss and tell her story. Her portrait is made with all of her trinkets-jewelry, fridge magnets, Christmas ornaments, buttons, pins etc. My favorite piece may be that Care-bear pin (used as her cheek.) .

Huge heartfelt thanks to all of you for your love and kindness through that hard period of time and beyond💕

Filling my ❤️

I gotta big heart!
