Don’t Tell My Child: A Call for Art Submissions

Becoming a mother was an awkward process for me. I was madly in love with my sweet little girl from the moment I saw her squishy little face, but I was not in love with my new role. I felt guilty about how I was always tired when I was with her, but energized when I had a break. I dreamed of other things I wanted to do, and then silently apologized to her for my inability to be present. This is a part of the story I tell in my album “Don’t Tell My Child” that will be released mid-2021.

What are your secrets as a parent? What do you find most challenging or paradoxical? I’m a believer in the power of stories and art to create beauty out of the messy and awful realities we face every day. I want to create a space for all artist-parents to share their beautiful, messy, awful truth.

Interested in being a part of that space?
