Old counselor swaps therapy couch for terp and tints.
Feedback from Mimi Rodriguez
Been a mental health, addictions, AIDS and family counselor for nearly 40 years. Parenting, meditation, 12step, yoga, cooking and gardening have been sources of joy and balance for most of my life. Until two years ago.
I am adopted into two generations of art through my mom and grandmother. Recently discovered that art is on both sides of my biological family as well.
Gloria Cuadraz, a PhD in women’s and minority studies, an artist and dear friend, generously set me up with materials, instruction and a simple still life two years ago. That event plummeted me into a joy I never imagined. My friend’s kindness and mentorship continue to inspire me. My prayer is to reflect the beauty I see in her, and by extension in myself and around me; to grow to a place where I could call myself an artist, and continue the legacy of artistry.
I have so much to learn, and a willing and teachable heart .
I have known Mimi since I was a child. She is one of the most imaginative people I have ever known. I’m not a bit surprised that she is evolving so quickly as a painter.
