AMOR

AMOR

Make the world safe for our children, but not our children's children, because I don't think children should be having sex.

If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is "God is crying." And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is "Probably because of something you did.

Kind words for a Gift in Brooklyn

Gift in Brooklyn

Hello!
My name is Rachael and I live in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. I want to write to you to let you know how special your artwork is to me. In September 2010 I arrived back to NYC from a particularly challenging trip to India. I worked in an orphanage there during the summer, and in my time after traveling via trains through India, I saw the worst in people through greed, corruption, sadness, loss, and pure destruction in both environmental and animal abuse. Needless to say, I felt the experience to my very core. It put me in a very distraught state of mind and infinite sadness seemed to take over. I felt helpless and lost. I caught an early flight home to Brooklyn and walked into a destroyed home. I had been robbed while away, and all of my personal belongings and cherished items gone. The impact on my already saddened self was immense.
I walked outside to clear my head and being 4 am, the streets were empty. All of a sudden, In the moonlight, a happy face with large eyes and the idea of "LOVE" seemed to jump out to me. It was your art. It rushed a feeling of happiness, love, friendship, connection and pure energy into me, at a time when I needed it most. I thank you for this. It was at the right time and in the right place. I took it home and it has been on every apartment I have lived in since, front and center and always making me happy when I see it.

This has been unexpectedly a long and winding tale, but thank you again and again. I had to reach out to you and let you know how your artwork has touched me. Keep creating and LOVE.

Best,
Rachael
