Love, Mama

On the A train

Damp and crowded. whispers from the corners. She proclaimed “Dont you know you are a black girl.” I wonder who she is. Her whispers of a time when she was safe(R). “I am from the linege of the oppression in the empire of Africa.” I look for local. A way out. Leaving my sister whispering through her loudest.

NOTE TO ALL MY TUMBLE LOVES: Please watch this to better understand why people like myself teach everyday. While you watch you will feel (I know you will) your heart lift to a new level of hope and love.  Well imagine feeling that every week (if not once a day)! Watching the hope in our youth is what keeps me going as an educator. What makes my  Grad School loan debt sometimes easier to deal with. Witnessing their need to better than the world given to them is a sneak peak in the wonders of the universe. *sigh, smile and tears in my eyes right now! I kinda miss my kids!*

Osmia Avosetta are solitary bees that build their nests by biting petals off of flowers, flying them back one by one, and gluing them together often using nectar as glue. Each nest is a papermache work of art that houses a single bee egg. (via)

What is up with Love, Mama?

Hello Friends and Family,

Love,Mama began over 10 years ago when I (Tiffany) was encouraged to start my own doll line. Since I have sold countless dolls and other items made with love along side my creative partner Erin, who is also my bestie and sister. During those 10 years I lost my mentor, best friend and big adopted sister Adrienne McDonald, moved to my heaven aka Brooklyn, watched my sister Erin become a fashion designer and FIERCE style Godis! (spikesandsequins.com). I have also witnessed me transform from a Art Education Grad student (who was STUDYING HARD!) into a hard working dedicated love my job Art Educator in NYC. 

In those 10 years I have lost sight and time to create and share my work. I often watch the creative efforts of my students and peers with joy and a little sadness because I miss MAKING ART! Therefore I am proclaiming to be MORE committed! In my first week of being 29!!!!! I will create for me!
