In this episode of Art, Parenthood and Beyond, I explore how my childhood memories, fears, and insecurities have influenced my parenting and artistic expression. I share a personal story about the transition to a new daycare for my son and how it revealed my instinct to protect him. Through the process of painting, I discover that he is more capable than I ever realized, and I learn valuable lessons about balancing protection with independence.
