We might have gone a little crazy at the Buffalo Arts Studio auction. In my defense I am making a salon style wall of small things I bought during the quarantine and I needed these! #whatiwon #bas #liveonfive

Make Art a Part of Your Every Day Life

I was honored to be interviewed by @emilyebbareynolds from @bica.buffalo for their magazine @corneliamagazine! in bio

Even though it’s only my second one, this was definitely my best Mother’s Day ever. Through the efforts and emotions of my family, my brilliant colleague Elisabeth Samuels and all the artists we are so lucky to work with on PROXIMITY, I might remember this as The Mother’s Day we did amazing things with art & signs and not The Covid-19 Mother’s Day. I hope you all had an equally wonderful day. ... Art has always held Buffalo together I love my city and all of you. Xoxo Jinx
