In September ’15 Niki began the Artist Women’s Group in her Shack. Faces came and left but a core group of 4 of us kept meeting and working through living as artists, women, mother’s, co pilots in parenting, partners/wives/ex wives, educators, working outside the home and trying to fit in some fun. My favourite title for this group is still “women freezing our asses off on Friday mornings” Artist Group or “WFOAOFM.”
This group became a touchstone during my time in the dark. A place I could go talk, laugh and both give and get support from other artists and believe anything is possible.
This group continues to be a place of hope, laughter, tears and great artistic ideas and support. As Sophie declared “the portal is open” as we move into Fall 2016.
All of the women, in this group, are a huge part of my Crazy Beautiful Album coming to life and my Release Party this Friday night.
Much thankfulness and love to each of you Niki, Kiki, Linda and the latest brave woman Sophie.
