## Caption

This cost me years of my career.

I didn’t understand, at first,
that my role is one of trust.

To connect.
To emote.
To give my heart — every time.

Painting is a spiritual experience for me.
I enter it fully, or not at all.

It took years to learn
that devotion without boundaries has a cost.

When I finally stopped chasing approval and started choosing truth, everything changed.
