To all the naysayers in my past...  I know art matters.

To all the naysayers in my past...
I have dreamed, prepared, and set real life goals to get here.
I work hard, earn my keep
and I'm careful with what I earn.

I'm a bit exhausted, sometimes frustrated,
often times filled with joy and extremely grateful 
for each person who knows. 

As I look to the future, I'm taking this moment 
to celebrate my love affair with art.
Happy Valentine's Day.
I love what I do.
It hasn't been easy.
But it has been fun, exciting, and deeply exhilarating ​
to defy all the naysayers who don't believe.

​I am an artist ...because art matters ❤️

I'll be using these flowers, collected and dried over the last few years.
They reflect life events: births, weddings, anniversaries, friendships and deaths.

Here's the start of my first painting for 2020,
​"unconditional love" - 36" x 36" canvas.

It began as a reflection of an earlier art-work, 
"In memory, I love him still" (#YELLOW series, no. 14)
which I dedicate to my father, George
​(RIP 09.27.2019 Y.L. Ho)

thank you for believing in my work. ​
