Early Riser
Sloths have been recurring my entire life, but they come to me through other people. My brother, partner, and both my mother and mother-in-law are all obsessed with this lackadaisical, quirky creature. I celebrate those I love with this piece, creating something that speaks directly to those who feel pushed along by life.
There's something beautiful about the sloth's approach to existence – that wide, sleepy-eyed acceptance of moving at your own pace, even when the world expects you to hurry. Here he is with his steaming mug, embodying that slow and steady approach to waking up in the morning, slightly bewildered but not apologetic about it.
The vibrant background with its energetic swirls of blue and pink contrasts with his calm demeanor, creating that humor we all recognize – the tension between what the world demands and what we can actually give before we've had our coffee.
This piece is for all the people in my life who've taught me it's okay to take your time as you start the day. It's a reminder that some of us are built for different rhythms, and there's wisdom in refusing to be rushed. Sometimes the most radical thing you can do is move at the speed of your own soul, coffee in hand, eyes still adjusting to the light.
