If bad experiences can find us unexpectedly, then so can the good.

Every moment is a new portal, a new chance for unexpected good to find you. I hope it does✨

For “Portal of Dreams” I envisioned a door or window, an entrance to a new reality. I wanted it to feel like leaving a flat world and encountering magic.

“Alternate Supermassive” is my card and sticker of the month. My bookmark of the month, ”Portal of Dreams,” is also inspired by new beginnings.

When we enter the unknown, we have no idea where we’ll end up. What may be the end of one journey could be the beginning of another.

I like to imagine that another universe or dimension of reality is waiting on the other side of my original black hole painting. That place is “Alternate Supermassive.”

This is the last month of the year, a time of endings and new beginnings. That can feel sad, but also so hopeful.

Years ago, while photographing my painting with a new phone and playing with the settings, I accidentally created this print-exclusive version of “Supermassive.”
