Art & Design Magazine
When I was a little girl, I wanted to be a veterinarian, then an animator, then an interior designer. My current job is not even remotely similar to any of those positions. My friend Katie, though, wanted to be an artist... and she is.
Last Friday, I attended the unveiling of her latest work, a mural created for the Edwin Gould Foundation and entitled "Prime Root."
I couldn't have been prouder, especially being that I've basically known how talented she is my entire life. Together we've finger-painted, performed in plays, went to art camps, and workshopped in writing classes.
And now she's an artist, a real one.
Chatting with her parents again, meeting her friends, seeing her work couldn't have been more wonderful. I just love having lifelong friends. And for the record, I have a feeling our unique journeys are going to be just fine.
