There are moments as an artist when something bigger than the brush seems to be guiding your path. My recent experience at the Graffiti/Muralist and Fine Art Show was one of those moments—an experience steeped in artistic synchronicity that I’m still reflecting on.
The show itself was vibrant and full of energy, filled with conversations, inspiration, and connection. One of the most poignant moments came when a woman named Katherine purchased my heart painting, Remembrance. What made this moment truly striking is that just last month, another woman—also named Katherine—purchased one of my paintings and was moved to tears in the process.
Two emotional connections. Two women named Katherine. Two heartfelt transactions. It felt less like coincidence and more like artistic synchronicity—as if I were being gently nudged by unseen hands, guided by something greater than chance. Some would call it divine timing, others might say it’s the work of spirit guides or the universe aligning—but to me, it’s part of the quiet magic of being an artist.
My booth at the show featured a collection of works ranging from ethereal landscapes and surreal visions to introspective portraits. These paintings aren’t just images—they’re stories, emotional touchstones, and dreamscapes. Viewers are invited to step inside and experience their own interpretations, which often leads to some incredibly moving exchanges.
You may notice that in the photo from the event, I’m wearing a black mask. As someone who is immunocompromised, I take precautions—but interestingly, the mask has become something of a signature. It adds a sense of mystery and presence that echoes the tone of much of my work. A visitor once told me it made me look like an artist from another realm, which I take as a high compliment.
I’m grateful to everyone who stopped by, shared thoughts, or took the time to truly see the work. Thank you for being part of this journey. Whether you call it coincidence or artistic synchronicity, I’m trusting the rhythm—and I look forward to where it leads next.
Stay tuned for more reflections, new work, and upcoming shows.
