You can see one of my earliest artworks below; I don’t have a photo of just the page by itself but I finger painted the entire thing bright red. And scarlet was my favorite crayon.
My grandmother collected glass slippers before she passed; I never met her but every time I would go to my grandfather’s house I would marvel at this red glass slipper (it reminded me of the Ruby slippers from The Wizard of Oz) and the way it caught the sunlight. After he died I kept all of her slippers and her bell collection in my bedroom on the same desk where they had been displayed at his house—and the red one was my favorite still. I kept it apart from all the others. I take it with me everywhere I move.
I have a bright red raincoat. Red is the only lipstick color I wear. I’ve had every hair color but red has always been my favorite and I’m going to continue to stick with it for a long time. I’m currently wearing a red silk nightgown. I may be a green M&M but red is the color of my passion…

🌈Actually rainbow. I lovceeee seeing all the colors together. It’s so satisfying.
The color I’m most drawn to at any given time changes. Most of my life it was blue. Then there was the year I painted my room red. I was very yellow for a time (in generally I think I’m a yellow person). Green is always right there waiting for me. Hot pink was it just a year or two ago. Currently I’ve been into shades of purple, which is a first for me.

It lends a reflective and wistful tone to written communications imo…

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
