✨ I Am Baltimore ✨ Honored to be a part of the I Am Baltimore Art Exhibit

✨ I Am Baltimore ✨

Bookings: RayshardBookings@gmail.com

Honored to be a part of the I Am Baltimore Art Exhibit — and even more humbled to have been included in a piece that was selected and sold.

To be represented in a space that celebrates the creativity, culture, and stories of this city means more than I can fully put into words. Baltimore has shaped me in so many ways, and to now be a part of its artistic narrative feels full circle.

Grateful for the opportunity, the recognition, and the continued journey of becoming.

Kisses 💋😘

Baltimore
3/24 Edited to

... Read moreBeing part of the I Am Baltimore Art Exhibit is a profound milestone for any artist connected to the city. I have personally found that exhibiting in such a space is more than just sharing artwork; it’s about embracing the stories, culture, and creative pulse that defines Baltimore. Baltimore’s art scene thrives on its diverse voices and rich history, often reflected in community-driven exhibits like this one. Having an artwork selected and sold at this event not only validates the craft but also deepens an artist’s relationship with the city’s cultural narrative. It’s rewarding to witness how art serves as a bridge between individual experiences and collective identity. From my perspective, participating in this exhibit has been a journey of reflection and growth. While preparing my piece, I was reminded how Baltimore shaped who I am, from its neighborhoods to its energetic art community. This connection drives creative process and fuels storytelling through visual media. Furthermore, collaborations with local institutions like the University of Maryland School of Medicine, often mentioned in exhibitions around Baltimore, highlight how art and other sectors unite to promote community recognition and healing. For anyone considering joining a similar exhibit or immersing themselves in Baltimore’s artistic culture, my advice is to embrace authenticity and community engagement. These exhibits are platforms where your story adds to a collective mosaic that honors Black creatives, local artists, and their impact. Ultimately, the I Am Baltimore exhibit is a celebration of identity, creativity, and perseverance. It reminds each artist that their contribution matters and that the journey of becoming is continual. This experience inspires both emerging and established artists to keep pushing boundaries and sharing their vision with pride and gratitude.

How to Deal with Sin aggressively ✝️
1. Cut off completely Matthew 5:29-30 “If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.” What it means: Remove triggers aggressively, not gently. Apply: - Block sites

A woman gently holds a baby in a sunlit room, with light streaming through an arched window. The text reads: "Postpartum was never meant to be 'normal life.' It was a threshold."
A silhouette of a woman stands in a grand doorway with flowing pink fabric. The text states: "Across cultures, birth was treated as a liminal state - not stable, not ordinary, not to be rushed."
A mother tenderly holds her baby against a glowing, ethereal background. The text says: "She was considered spiritually open. More sensitive. More permeable."
Postpartum is a threshold to be honored
Postpartum was never designed to be “bounce back.” Across cultures, it was treated as a liminal period: — Spiritually open — Physically vulnerable — Psychologically transitional Which is why it came with structure: Rest. Protection. Containment. Support. 40 days shows up again and again

Peace grows where healthy boundaries are honored.
Lately, I’ve realized that protecting my peace isn’t something I say, it’s something I practice. It’s in the boundaries I honor, the conversations I choose to have, the rest I allow myself to take, and the people and places that leave me feeling lighter instead of drained. I’m not perfect at
