Inspirited by my participation in the Sketchbook Project World Tour 2012, which will travel North America starting April 14, 2012, I now bring my Fears and Tears Project to the world. I asked those in my life to share their fears and tears that lay in their hearts. "It's easier to share our strengths with friends or close ones but perhaps challenging to share our vulnerabilities with others. Could it be fear of embarrassment, judgement or maybe much pain is attributed to our fears and tears. What do you fear? What makes you cry tears of joy or perhaps tears of sadness? Why? May it be possible in understanding others' vulnerabilities, ours may shed? Maybe our own judgements of others be softened? A possibility perhaps..." Inspired by their thoughts, I channeled their feelings through these twenty paintings, within my sketchbook. It certainly has been quite a blessing experiencing this journey as I am so humbled by everyone's transparent hearts, so raw and so honest. I never a! nticipated how this project would touch my soul so deep and would solidify the importance to branch this project. Allow yourself the opportunity to liberate and celebrate yourself by sharing your fears and tears at www.shareyourfearsandttears.tumblr.com . Our vulnerabilities deserve equal respect as our strengths as they are the source of self awareness and self appreciation which open the doors to healing and wholeness.
