My Gratitude Kit Story
Gratitude is central to how I want to live my life and inspires my work. Several years ago I decided to do a Gratitude project called A Hundred Thank Yous, I wrote a list of 100 people who had a positive influence on my life. They were friends, family, celebrities, artists, and inspirational leaders. It took 1.5 years to complete. At the end of the project, I held a gallery event, hung all of the paintings in one room, and invited everyone I made a painting for to attend. At the end of the event, I gave the paintings away to their owners!
During that time, I was deep in gratitude for each painting I made. In some ways, it was a challenge for me, both spiritually and emotionally. It stretched my ability to love, appreciate, and create. During my project, I was contacted by an independent filmmaker, Haily Bartholomew, who came to my hometown (at the time) in Upstate, New York. She filmed me and my paintings and the launch event where I exhibited all 100 paintings. The short film called Gratitude Grows found its way to Oprah's Super Soul Sunday series!
I found that I was more present and in the moment, appreciating the smallest of gifts. The consistent practice of gratitude brought even more things to be thankful for in my life. I wanted to extend gratitude beyond my original project to reach as many people as possible and that was when I came up with the idea to create A Month of Thank Yous – Gratitude Kit, using 30-images from my 100 Gratitude Paintings project.
