Bringing My Dad’s Art Supplies to My Residency

My dad passed away five years ago. I’m bringing some of his supplies with me to the place where his family immigrated from. It feels important to have a piece of him with me while I’m there and to feel close to him during this residency. Hi! I’m Sierra Machado, a public school art teacher in Oklahoma in my 17th year of teaching. I share art making, student work, and my own studio process. #artist #artteacher #artistresidency #artprocess #griefandart #creativeprocess
