Delivered “Down by the Creek” to One Heart Medical today 🌿🫶🏻

06/13/2024

To take 100% of the credit for this one would be a crime to William Lee Apostal…otherwise know as “my friend”…Billy Strings 🎸

I’ve created most of my pieces with the help of Jim M & The Doors 🎶 And while Jim came in twice to help me lays these (damn) rocks…it was hours and hours of Billy…Billy every morning in my cold plunges…Billy all day long…til the music was in my Dreams…and when I knew I couldn’t name this one “Meet me at the Creek” and give away my baby…I started shutting down over it…Billy handed me Love & Regret…🙌🏼

So She comes with a Soundtrack…please listen…Give my boy Billy some Love 🫶🏻 I wouldn’t have gotten through this one without his Genius 💚

“Down by the River…the water’s cold…She came to me in a dream…and slipped away like a running stream…” 🖼️

“Down by the River” went to her home at the Eastgate One Heart Medical location in Cincinnati, Ohio Today 💚

She joined my piece “Journey” as the Finishing Touch of a very cool space created by Dr Weeks and his team 🌿

My Largest piece to date…but thanks to Rob…she fit like a glove in the truck…🛻

I may have cried a river of tears over this piece…I may be crying writing this…Art is Hard…yet the reward of the Breath that came…when after holding my breath I swear from Owensville to Milford, to Eastgate…then hanging it…Well it was Soooooo Worth it! 👩🏼‍🎨

She came to me in a Dream…and slipped away like a running stream…🌿

06/07/2024

I went for a walk…and when I returned…She was waiting for me 💚

06/06/2024

Wellll…I’m sure I will sit here all weekend and just “Look at It”…and make small tweaks…but “Down by the River” is heading to her home next week…🙌🏼

…and as I say Everytime when I’m (almost 😉) finished…This IS The Coolest Thing I’ve Ever Created 🖼️
I will sure miss her….but I can not wait to see her hanging 👩🏼‍🎨

“She came to me in a Dream…and slipped away like a Running Stream” 🎶

Love & Regret 🤍 Mr Billy Strings 🌿

Soooo worth getting back out of bed to work on this…I was rewarded with a thunderstorm while listening to the rain & my beloved creek rage by…⛈️

Time to stand her back up in the morning…Soooo close…to losing this old friend to her new home…One Heart Medical is getting a piece of my Heart & Soul 💚 Sleep or not…Before she leaves on her Journey…She will be Perfect first…Just like in my Dream👩🏼‍🎨
