CURA.

I walked with artist SK Lyons through the park.

We came across several squirrels and a cat asleep in a tree.

We discussed their practice and how it was important to see someone like them, like me or you, even in the image of flowers.

We came across a tiny waterfall and questioned if the water was greener than last year’s.

We then went on to discuss cartoons, the early development of personal image from these animations and if they would ever want to work on a cartoon themselves.

They said maybe.

We talked about folklore and futurism fairy tales.

It started to get cold but we kept walking to stay warm.

Their art isn’t an escape from everyday life but a hyper animated reflection.

We sat on a bench for a while and watched the sunset.

Then it got too cold so we parted ways to go home.
