Thoughts/learnings: What would a vanity free world look like? This is a painting of a block party at Weeksville (historical black neighborhood) in Brooklyn.

There was so much joy in the air. The little girl in pink was learning to double dutch and the whole crowd cheered her on when she landed the jumps. I felt connected to the neighborhood. It felt like love.
