I quit my job to refocus and just be
It has been a month since I walked away from a toxic work environment, and I couldn't be more relieved. While I currently don't have a job, I don't feel panicky. I do feel like a huge burden has been lifted off my shoulders. Now, before I go any further, let me give you a bit of the backstory.

Fashion Design
I guess it all started when I was about 4... It was the first dress I got that wasn't a hand-me-down. I mean, growing up with 8 siblings everything is shared. It was absolutely beautiful; mid-length, shoulder pads, long sleeves , a high neck and RED. I could spin and the bottom would flare out. It was the first time I felt... pretty.

ART-MY PASSION, MY DESIRE, UNTIL I DIE.
I am at the chapel getting ready for my funeral. I look at all these people who gathered to say good bye to me. Most people I know but there are others who I've never met in my life. Who are they? Why did they come? They smile at my family, some laugh out loud like they didn't know where they are. How ironic, even though I'm dead, I'm still over thinking everything... Never mind, they start the goodbye ceremony. My sister speaks about me. She has put together a presentation in PowerPoint, to show my life. It starts with a thank you note. Then it goes my biography, my achievements and some pictures of my beautiful family.

Concrete Jungle
I “come from” a tiny Island that takes about a 2 hour car ride to drive from one end of the island to the other. (Said in my Antiguan dialect aka- “broken english”) We were taught the Queen’s English but cut sentences in two to make them shorter, more direct, to the point and in a language only we could understand and make our own. A defiant cause, indeed. It’s no wonder that my favorite subject in school once I moved to America in grade 6 was English. Americans do not speak like the British and I do not always speak like an American. I have however, spent most of my life living in South Florida. When I lived in Florida, people thought I was from NY, now that I live in LA, people think I’m a Valley girl. Hey, I’m just me and my accent has a very wide range depending on who I’m around.

Learning To Draw My Second Chance
When I was a child, I was an idealist and often daydreamed of becoming a famous artist. I wanted to make extraordinary art. By the age of 6, I could draw rabbits, and my grade school teachers were swooning over me with giving me platitudes, saying that I would be a truly successful artist one day. I, however, thought from Kentucky? Maybe at yard sales drawing dogs or grannies. Delapatated Barnes became a thing for me. I was going to be famous for the nontraditional approach.

Part of my story, `Death of Fear`
strengthen your communication with Navi and Do it now." "That's what I want." "Listen to him instead of saying. " . That day you tore down the Tupac poster and went out on your own. Navi cried a lot after you left. Pammi was sad too. They both removed the Fifty-Cent sign from the wall and folded it up. Navi said, "Mom when I grow up, I will paste this poster in my room. By then, it will also become historical. I will also remember that at some point, Dad demoralized Tupac.

My Dreams By: Danyel Fields
Like it says above; how my life would be if I had money! I'm from the Great Lake State of Michigan about mid way up in the mitten in Newaygo county. Beautiful land and lakes with great people all around willing to share a smile with strangers. It is a place I am grateful for growing up in and around. I have never really settled down in one place and have always been on the move. Weather that be my felt or other's but the real blame is on no one other than on myself.

What the Tuft?!. Top Story - June 2021.
From childhood I have always been immersed in art. Any chance I could get, I would try a new way to create. Eventually I found a love for sewing in high school and with that passion I started designing clothing with the intention to go to school for fashion design. Unfortunately that didn't quite work out as my interest in fashion was so broad that I felt I needed to have more experiences than my college could provide. I began working in retail, studying cosmetology, studying graphic design, and studying the world always with how things translate into a more tactile art. I love textures and sculptural fashion more than anything.
