Back in October, I had the incredible honor of unveiling the first of a series of murals I created for at the Myers Park Pediatric Clinic. The theme was rainforest—inspired by my childhood summers spent in Brazil 🇧🇷 lush, vibrant, and full of life!
But more than just a backdrop, the mural was meant to spark wonder and bring a sense of calm, joy, and imagination to children and families walking through the doors. It is rooted in the very important principles of The Basics created by Smart Start to foster the healthy development of children. ❤️
It was a celebration of the early years, the building blocks, the quiet and powerful moments where growth takes root. Having started the project right before Olivia was born, it has meant so much to me to learn and grow with her whole working on these special murals. 🫶🏼
And now, tomorrow, a second mural will be unveiled. A new theme. A new space. But the same heart: to make kids feel safe, seen, and inspired and to foster engagement between little ones and their caregivers ❤️ what a privilege it has been to work on something so near and dear to my heart!
